We all love sewing (surprise), and sewing for little girls is extra fun! Thankfully, we're blessed to have some lovely little girls in our lives. They also happen to be cousins, and their mommies also like to dress them alike. So, we like to sew for them.
And, cooler weather is coming (saaaaddd), so the girls could use something a bit more fallish. Enter a long sleeve amelia dress + an ana claire jumper + Sweet Things fabric. We are always so impressed with Lakehouse's black prints... they are amazingly saturated, and wash & wear so well too.
And, don't forget happy buttons! We recently had the pleasure of learning about Fastenation Studio. Hannah's just as cute and sweet as her buttons. We sent her a swatch of the outfit fabrics, and Hannah custom made the buttons to match! Don't they look perfect?? All of Hannah's buttons are handmade with high quality polymer clay and double glazed. They are amazing.
Some of our favorite buttons in Hannah's shop are the bunnies, baseballs, red, white & blue, and sew swirly. The buttons came so quickly too!
Hannah also makes these darling hair bow clips! We just pinned them onto the front of the girls jumpers for now. We can't wait to see them in their little wispy hair!
Kristie (Mom) really gets the credit for making these darling jumpers. She loves to bless other people's lives, and sewing for little girls is her favorite thing to do. We think it must be the 20+ years experience. We can't wait to give the girls their outfits (hopefully this weekend)!

I really relate to Kristie's fun with sewing for little girls. I had one daughter to sew for and now am counting my blessing at getting to do that. We've recently learned we're expecting our fourth grandson (last grandchild). I never would have guessed I wouldn't get another little girl to sew for. Now what to do with all the long-saved, hoped-to-see-on-granddaughter, darling smocked dresses, sun suits, and bonnets!
