Sewing Challenge 2020 – Week 28

This weeks challenge: Book Week
Accepted/Rejected: Accepted

Book week has been moved to October this year, but a few weeks ago we had simultaneous story time, you can read about it here. Mr 4’s daycare had a dress up day that was themed “Dress up like a Diva”.

We went to the fabric shop especially for him to choose the fabrics he wanted for this costume and he was so excited when we found the sparkly stars and even more excited when he found the gold lamé for the crown.

Mr 4 has so many pairs of Sprouts pants like these because they are my go to for dress up days, they are super quick and easy to make and can be sewn completely on the overlocker.

For the crown I used the Bunny Bucket Crown with optional elastic, which means it also fits Mr 10 too much to my little guys upset.

Happy Sewing

Gardening Kits with the Bunny Bag

I recently signed up for a Fun in Sun Craft Swap. Swaps are so much fun, I highly suggest finding one near you and participating in it. The theme for the swap was outdoorsy type play items for kids. I opted to make gardening kits. They’re easy and fun for all ages.

The Bunny Bag was perfect for holding all the contents of the kit. I couldn’t believe how much the bag held! Just look.

What non-holiday use have you gotten from the Bunny Bucket Pattern?

52 Week Sewing Challenge – Week 9

This weeks Challenge: Something with Buttons (Accepted)

With Easter coming around the corner very quickly, this weeks challenge is the perfect excuse to get some Bunny Buckets sewn up for the boys. They both are still carrying around last years buckets which are looking a little worse for wear. One is missing it’s handle even.

I saw the Bunny Tales Carrots and the Spotty Co-ord during the after Christmas sales and bought it exactly for this purpose. The fact they it actually got sewn up for it’s intended purpose and even in the right year is AMAZING! haha

I later found another co-ord from the same range and just had to have it too. I paired them with a light blue home spun at the request of Mr 7, who was very vocal that the carrot one was to be his.

 

The boys snuck into the sewing room and ran away with the carrot one before I could take photos and it has already had to have the button resewn, at least I know they will be loved.

Happy Sewing xx
