Stella Skirt and Baby Tutu

As promised I have pictures of the Stella Skirt and the Baby Tutu on my favorite model (I'm not partial at all :))!

This "photo shoot" lasted all of about 5 mins! Marley was not having it. Have I mentioned she HATES grass! How weird is that! Its nice when we walk to the park and I can lay out a blanket, and she wont budge off it, so I get a little bit of non-chasing time. On the other hand, Its hard to get good pictures outside! Notice her foot is as close to her body as possible. She was so irritated with me!

I love the poofieness (not sure if thats a real word... clearly being an English major did not help me in the spelling department) of this tutu!
I thought the Stella Skirt turned out really cute on. I really dislike long skirts on babies, they always seem to overwhelm them. I like that this one is short and sassy, and doesn't take over my little peanut!

I just made a 1st birthday tutu for some friends today, so I will share that creation next week!

Have a Happy and Blessed Easter!

A Little Peek at Some Fun Skirts!

Just a little peek at what I'm working on for The Queen Bee Market!
I'm going to try and take some more pictures this weekend on my own little model, but I thought I would share the solo pics today!

I call this the Stella Skirt. I'm kind of obsessed with this one. I love the tulle at the bottom... its so whimsical and girly! I made one a couple of weeks back for a baby shower for little Stella... hence the name! This will soon have a matching onesie and hair clip of course!

This is a double-layered baby tutu! Ok, so I'm on a tulle kick! I've been making tutus for awhile now, and wanted to mix it up a little so I made this one multi-layered. It turned out so poofy! Mission accomplished! I think thats the goal of every tutu... how poofy can one be!

As always, more to come!!!

Look Who's Coming! Baby Shower Gift

Finally! I tracked down a picture of the baby shower gift I made and sent off on Saturday! I knew someone would have taken a photo, and good ol facebook pulled through!

The theme of the party was birds, and the invitation read "Look Whooo's Coming" with owls on it, so since I LOVE owls, this was my inspiration!

I wish you could see the skirt better, hopefully I'll find another photo, and when I do, a tutorial will be coming... or maybe I'll make another one just for that purpose (and Marley's wardrobe :) )

The Owl is appliqued on the onesie, using my own owl pattern. I stitched the wings on with a zigzag stitch, and then did a straight stitch around the edge prior to applying the strong Heat and Bond (which you Can't sew through). The eyes were attached using Heat and Bond as well. This way there is no stitching touching the baby skin, especially since I made this for 0-3 months.

The skirt is my own creation with a fun double-layered tulle ruffle at the bottom. (these will be in my shop soon!)

Throw in  pair of Baby Legs, and you have an outfit!
