KCW Spring 2013 – Sailor blues

April 28, 2013

KCW

Sewing has ground to a halt here…we’re having a lovely family weekend and the sewing loft is the last place I want to be just now. I will get those red shorts whipped up soon though!

However, another day, another new outfit for Button.

I LOVE this outfit.  Comfy, cosy, practical, cute.  Both of these garments are an age 5, and she’s petite enough that she’ll get some wear out of them, but they’re not completely swamping her.

IMG_7907_edited-1We found the cute spotty shoes just by chance on Friday evening.  I couldn’t resist!

They’re just the ticket to round off this outfit.

    She looks chuffed to bits! The socks are perfect too, with the blue trim

      The fact that the ribbon on the shorts matches the trim on the socks is her favourite bit! Oh she’s easily pleased. 😉

    Oh my that’s right she’s five already. Lord I can’t keep up. Cute little button she is too in her new threads. What a lovely mummy she has …

      It’s terrifying how quickly they grow up. The Boy starts school in September…how did that happen?
      I think I’m the lucky one that she loves me making for her!

        Really? September? Oh my. What a thought. How excited is he? And will he be at the same school as Button?

          He’s beyond excited. He tries to stay at school every morning, even though he loves the nursery he goes to 3 times a week. We had the confirmation through last week from the local authority that he’ll be in the same school, although we’d had earlier verbal confirmation from the head mistress. We are thrilled. It’s an amazing school.

            It really is such an important thing, starting school, and hooray to getting into the same one as Button. Phew! We agonised about which of the three local schools to enrol in …. Just think how hard its going to be for the next school up! But that’s years away ….

    What precious photos! And of course the outfit is super cute on her.

      She looks too grown up in these photos. 🙁 But I do love the outfit!

    Oh Evie, this is cool! I love the outfits (also refers to your ruffle top) you sewed during KCW. The colors and your fabrics choice are beautiful!

      Thank you so much. I’m a bit behind with the final outfit but that is coming too, and it might just be my favourite to date!

Hi there,
I'm Evie and I knit, stitch, spin and sew.
With varying degrees of success!
But always with my family around me in our little town in the North of England.
Grab a brew and stay a while.
