Some S&S's from moi!

This is a hemp jersey t-shirt that I made for my brother for his birthday. It came out so well. (if I do say so myself). This is probably my second most favorite hemp jersey ever so I of course had to point that out to my bro when I gifted it to him. White cotton lycra for the neck and sleeves since I was being stingy with the hemp. Sorry it's a pretty bad pic - I was rushing out the door to the party


Closeup of the iron-on


I also made him some lounge around the house shorts from the PRR turtles.


Next up are matchy outfits for my two girls and my neice. I really love how these turned out, but this was the first Baby Nay I had sewn and I didn't like sewing with it much at all. Hence the lettuce edge so I didn't have horribly stretched out hems.


Last but not least are matchy shirts for my kids from the Hanna stripes from Fabricline. Each one has different color sleeves and ribbing that match various stripes in the pattern. I really like how these turned out. I wasn't sure about the bright colors, but they seem to look nice on my fair skinned kiddos.


Thanks for looking!

I love the hemp tshirt. Looks comfy too! I bet your bro feels lucky. Where do you get your iron ons?

Wow, you used a lot of "good" fabric there! I have those Hanna stripes too and am hesitant for the same reason. Not sure how I feel about them. But, dd assures me she likes the stripes and wants a winter dress from them.

I also had a bad experiece with Baby Nay. I'm not a fan of it.

You've been much more productive than I! WTG

Wow! I love all the matchy outfits. Your little niece is precious too! And I love the hanna stripes, but then I gravitate to bright stuff lately, after years of loving drab colors.
