Two new tops

The babe is going to have dozens of these tops as I work out all the kinks, to get a version good enough to make for sale. I'm quite liking this first one, I think I got this one just the way I wanted it. Except that I need to make it just a teeny bit longer.
Here's a (kinda blurry) full-body shot
If anyone has any helpful tips as to how to get a 1-year-old to stand still for more than a nanosecond, please, please tell me! :) Anyway, here's the second top, butterflies and tiny polka dots. :)
Next I'm thinking of making the raglan dress with long sleeves, I have a couple ideas already. :) Stay tuned!

And as a final note, my boy went to his very first soccer tournament yesterday. They played three half-hour games, and his team even won one game! Here he is with his brand-new medal.
And yes, he usually always stands around with his mouth open like that, staring blankly into the ditance. :D

  3. You have been way too busy! I can hardly keep up! Love these new tops! Love the skulls here and on the dress too! I think all little girls should have skulls in their wardrobe! I have absolutely no advice on keeping the 1yo still, mine is now 12 and still on the move!! Good Luck!

  4. Dorothy - thanks, I'm very happy with these two tops! And soccer rocks! :) Altho apparently my boy doesn't get exhausted from anything, not even going to soccer practice after school.

    Amybel - thank you for your kind words! I'm still trying to decide on what I should make to sell.. Plus I have no idea whatsoever what I should charge.. Decisions, decisions. :)

    Michele - I'm faster than the speed of lightning. :D Skulls are a must for any fashionable baby. :)
