I managed to fit some sewing in a few weeks ago, a few things for the girls (yes it's all going to be very pink!)
Ever since I made Emma's Svenja with the mushroom fabric Jess has been asking for a top the same so I decided to whip her up an Antonia. I find the pattern runs a bit short so I added some white stella at the bottom and just did rolled hems. The arms are Hilco campan knit, I love the stripes and wish I had grabbed some more when I could.
Even though it's been freezing lately Emma is obsessed with skirts so I decided to make her a knit skirt with some matching leggings.
The patterns are both from Ottobre 4/2009, #22 Daisy Stripes reversible skirt (though I didn't make it reversible) and #23 Licorice cropped leggings. I love this leggings pattern and made Jess a pair last year, the folds on the legs make them a bit different from plain leggings.
I also made Jess a Whitney dress for summer.
I wish I had a photo of this on it looks so much better than on the hanger. I have some fabric picked out to make one for Em as well.
Please excuse the ordinary indoor photos, when I took these it was pretty horrid outside and these were the best. I would retake some but Emma has already managed to stain her skirt and leggings. :( We have some bricklayers sand in our backyard that our water tanks sit on that the girls love to play in, that stuff stains like nobody's business.

Love all the pink sewing!!!
wonderful pieces!
It's a pity that they are stained already, hope you can find a way to get rid of the stains.
Beautiful sewing, my girls would really love these.
They are all gorgeous! I love the leggings - not sure I would have the patience for all those tucks :)
