Itty Bitty Rammer Jammer

With the influx of orders for my Collegiate Inspired Pillowcase Dresses, some people needed cute clothes for the wee little ones--under 12 months.

I think the absolute smallest I can make the pillowcase dress is 6 months size. Having said that, I made the pictured Bama dress for my best friend's 3 month old daughter. It should be a little long now, and perfect for at least one more season. PLEASE remember to supervise infants while wearing the pillowcase dresses, especially the long ties.

I have a dear friend who is a life-time fan and graduate of the Crimson Tide, and met his beautiful wife there. They just had an adorable baby girl a few days ago, so I wanted to make her some things to add to, what I can only assume is, a massive collection of Tide Pride clothes! Matching her gown, I made the elephant red work design to encompass her initials for the bib and burp cloth. To my horror, as I was completing the burp cloth, my iron let it's presence be known--by leaving a nasty brown mark over the embroidered piece! Grrr! At least I have more burps, but that makes me so sad to be oh-so-close to finished only to ruin the whole piece! BOO!



 






Molly's Momma wanted her to have bloomers, but I'll be making her some matching leggings in the near future.


The font of Molly's name matches the Roll Tide applique.


This wrap gown ONLY comes in size 0-3 Months. Can do gown with plain onesie up to size 6-9 Months, but won't have trim. Plain onesie's will have iron on applique that is on Pillowcase Dresses.




Other gowns will have one tie at bottom that matches the Pillowcase Dress top ties.

NOW AVAILABLE--HAIR BOWS!!!

YAY!  I am now offering bows, and I LOVE it!  They are SO FUN!  Makes me want a little girl that much more.  :)

I can add personalization--names can be added to ribbon that is 7/8" wide or greater, and initials can be added to covered buttons.  I may incorporate some appliqué patches into a few.  I can also add cutesy buttons--just let me know what you're wanting.

The first few photos are of a super cute outfit I made for my BFF Tiffany's baby girl, Norah (SURPRISE!)  I thought she needed a cute little outfit to wear this fall to support her favorite college team.  RTR, baby! :)  I made a matching bow with houndstooth and red ribbon, so her outfit would be complete from head to, well, bottom!


This is a skort, with full skirt around the shorts--perfect for presh little girls on the move.

I wanted to do something other than satin stitch around the edge, so this has a blanket stitch around the edge.  Can do either one though!  I kinda like being able to see the raw edge (it won't fray--it's been treated so that it won't)



This is a "naked" view of the houndstooth and red bow.  All alligator clips will be finished like this.

Inside has a no-slip velvet ribbon, for added staying power!  And I know my nails look rough.  :(

Molly's first bow, though she'll have to be a little older before she can were this small french clip bow.  The green and pink are little off in these pics...

Caroline is 4, so this bigger french clip bow will fit her sweet head perfectly.  This is 7/8" ribbon.

Molly's First Paci-Clip


My child modeling--don't worry, Molly will be getting her own paci to use with the clip.  :)

I've been waiting (not-so-patiently) for my bestest Jayma to pick a name for her sweet baby girl, and within the past week her and her hubby finally made a decision.  Molly will be here on or around July 2nd.

Today, I made Molly's first monogrammed gift--a paci-clip.  It's not super girly, but if you know Jayma & BJ, you know why I made it the way I did.  Who doesn't know what black & white hounds tooth with a hint of red signifies?  All I can say is Roll Tide Baby!  ;)  Having said that, I am not opposed to making garb to highlight or reference other teams!  Haha!

Jayma, I am holding this gift as ransom until you and BeeBee come visit for our belated birthday celebration!
