Sewing Challenge 2020 – Week 31

This weeks challenge: Upcycle
Accepted/Rejected: Rejected

Oh my! I am in love with this fabric. I ordered it for a special project which you can read more about next week but I just couldn’t wait to cut into it and make something.

I was looking for a super quick make that I could fit in before picking the kids up from school, the Super Suit was the perfect choice, it sews up super quickly and looks great.

And just because at this point it’s almost expected that I make some Sprouts or maybe just because I was loving the way this solid looked I quickly made up some Twigs to match.

Happy Sewing

Pattern Used: Flosstyle Super Suit and Flosstyle Sprouts – Twigs Option
Fabric: Flamingo Floral was from Noosa Fabric Co and the Solid was from RubyJam Fabrics.

5 Essential Sews for a New Baby

New babies are always so exciting!

My first thoughts when I find out that a family member or friend is expecting is “what can I sew?” so I decided to put together a round up of my top 5 essential sews for a new baby.

Flosstyle Pattern Super Suit has got your baby essentials covered. Sleevles, short sleeve and long sleeve options along with skater dress hack.

Super Suit
The Super Suit is perfect and has your onesie needs covered all year round, with sleeveless, short sleeves and long sleeve versions. Starting at 00000 all the way up to size 2. The pattern also includes tank and dress options.

Check out the Skater Dress Hack

Flosstyle Patterns Rainbow Hat is perfect for kids of all ages and all seasons with the included beanie option.

Rainbow Hat
No matter what time of year it is there is a Rainbow Hat option to suit. There are 3 brim options straight, floppy or ruffled and even the option to make a beanie. A matching beanie is the perfect addition to any outfit to keep that little newborn head cozy and warm.

Flosstyle Patterns Sprouts, this pattern has so many options you won't need any other shorts/pants pattern!

Sprouts
With six different styles and a size range to cover from newborn to preschool the Sprouts are the only pants/shorts pattern you will need. My favourite option to make are the Bloomies, they are just so cute!

Watch the pucker hack video on our Facebook group.

Flosstyle Patterns Babys First Toys is great for babies who are just finding their hands and looking for something to play with. For older babies try the balloon ball cover.

Baby’s First Toys
The Baby’s First Toys make great gifts for boys and girls in fun fabrics and they can be made with or without the ruffles. Sized for little hands and designed with safety in mind they are perfect for little ones of all ages.

Kanga Carrier
The Kanga Carrier is probably my most fulfilling sew ever, being able to look at the finished carrier and say “I made that” is a pretty awesome feeling. The carrier can be made on most domestic machines and no overlocker is required. Plus it’s much simpler than it looks. (I promise).

We would love to see photos of your creations in our Flosstyle Fair group.

Happy Sewing

That also means we have finished the first 13 Weeks of the 52 Week sewing challenge so I thought it was time to recap what has been sewn so far this year.

52 Week Sewing Challenge – Week 12

This weeks Challenge: Something from Felt (Rejected)

I’m not sure if you saw the sneak peak I posted a few weeks ago of some embroidery I was doing, it was my first time embroidering on a knit fabric so I wasn’t sure how it was going to turn out but I loved it.

Once I finished it I wasn’t sure what to sew it into so it sat on my desk for awhile before I decided it would make a super cute singlet using the Super Suit pattern.

 

It looked like it was missing something on it’s own so I decided to make some tooshies to go with it.

   

I love how they turned out and with the cute little bow adds a sweet touch for a little girl.

Happy Sewing xx

52 Week Sewing Challenge – Week 7

This weeks Challenge: Something with hearts (Accepted)

The challenge for week 7 is “Sew Something with Hearts”. Initially I was tempted to run to the fabric store and use this as an excuse to add to my growing fabric stash. But I was determined to stay true to my promise and not buy fabric for my challenges. So far I’ve only slipped up once.

Remember the Super Suit Skater Hack? You can find it here.  I decided this would be perfect for the funky peace and love fabric I had been storing. My toddler, the recipient, loves the swirl and twirl the half circle skirt provides.

I only changed 3 things from what the pattern and hack already offers. I cut the sleeves to be elbow length, added cuffs (who needs to hem!?) and added an inch to the length of the skater skirt.


Side note***bubbles will make any kid smile. So what’s up your sleeve this week? Did you accept or reject the Week 7 Challenge?
