Sewing for Kids..upcycled Denim,Pillowcase dresses+more

Girlie's love to twirl! Twirl skirt and butterfly appliques top. I have recentley had some questions on learning to sew for kids. This post is to explain what I have designed and sold in the past. A picture is worth a thousand words!

I love using vintage linens of all types! Up cycling at it's best!

Vintage Table cloth halter dress

Wiggles were very popular. For boys I added a cuff instead of a ruffle!

UPCYCLED jeans & Jacket. Vintage trim

Won a contest with this design and was in Parent Magazine Ad
