On Thursday night I was writing my "to do" list for Friday (I can't go to sleep without a list for the following day!) and I looked out the window and it was pouring with rain and the weather forecast was freezing and I decided that I wanted to do a bit of "just because" sewing.
Then I remembered the super cute cowl neck dresses that Anna had made for her girls a few weeks ago and thought that I'd better start thinking about winter clothes for the kids. I was sorting out my fabric cupboard last week and decided that it was getting out of control and promised myself that I would sew as many clothes for the kids as I could rather than buy them. Which means I need to be organised and predict what they are going to need before they actually need it otherwise I end up buying on the spur of the moment.
So I quickly ordered myself a copy of the pattern from Etsy and it was in my inbox when I woke up the next morning.
Just over 1 hour of sewing during the day and Lil came home from school and put on a brand new dress!
I'm loving it. So fast and easy to sew. Very practical
and cute as can be!! With a pair of stockings or tights, she's going to
be one snug little bug this Winter!!
SUPPLIES:
Cowl Neck Jumper Dress, Heidi & Finn
Hilco Campan Knit in Pink/Red (purchased at Crafty Mamas)

gorgeous! can just see my 4 yo in something like that!
love this pattern too.
Thankfully, winter is over here in Michigan BUT we are guessing this coming winter will be cruel to us. Spring is here and it is about 70F which is unheard of.
Love the stripes! nice knit. :)
That's really lovely! I wouldn't mind one of those myself..
Oh my goodness, LOVE THIS! Thanks for the inspiration.
So cute miss Lil! One hour of sewing to you, I hate to think how much the would be to me!!! It would take me that long to go through the pattern and make sure I had it all sussed!!! x
Gorgeous and simple. I am a little scared of sewing with knits and stretch fabrics. But have made it my mission to have a go this Winter. Heidi and Finn have some great patterns.
