I’m finally sewing for Baby! Its hard for me not to have him on my brain constantly these days now that he’s almost constantly kicking or dancing or poking in my belly. While boy sewing doesn’t seem to hold nearly the variety of girl sewing, nor does most of it seem as exciting, I’ve known...
I recently finished up making my first ever Messenger Bag from Liesl Gibson’s book “Little Things to Sew”. I’ve made various things from the book, and tons upon tons of garments using her patterns, so I knew the pattern would be perfect! This bag is meant for a special girl who is turning six years...

Super cute! I think it’s really hard to find boys’ prints. Even when there’s a novelty print with a boy theme, it doesn’t work too much past age 1 (at least for pants, a little longer for shirts). But solids get boring! Made by rae’s newborn pants are an awesome 20 minute sew and super cute too.
So cute, how did you like the pattern? I’ve had my eye on these as well
