Monsters...

They're taking over my sewing room at the moment! There are scraps of chenille and eco-felt everywhere, not to mention little bits of heat'n'bond but it's all worth it cos the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market is sneaking up on me in leaps and bounds!

Apparently it's only 12 sleeps away or something crazy like that and I'm getting so incredibly excited!

I've whipped up a pile of these pajama bags and I'm really keen on seeing how they go. I've made the bag part inside quite big so it's definately big enough to fit a pair of winter jammies and a few little boy treasures too! My favourite is the green one. He's got these awesome wooden buttons for eyes that I found at a garage sale a few years ago. They were sewn with string to a little piece of cardboard and they're sawn from a thin branch so you can see the rings. I knew they'd be perfect for something or other someday!!

You can check out who else will be at the March BrisStyle Indie Designers Market on the blog!!

  3. jammie bags, what a great idea!! I use to have one as a kid (not as funky as your though). I so should make some for the girls to encourage them to put their pj's away every morning, so sick of tripping over them. These will sell quick Sam!

  5. Oh these are adorable. My little man wore his tshirt I bought from you at the December market and he looked adorable!

    I am hoping to make it next week too - I will be sure to get there earlier this time though as I only just got my tshirt from you as you were packing up!
