Sew Little

Time to divulge the last secret I have been holding back from you over the past few months - how exciting! Lately I have come to the conclusion that I must be a bit addicted to being busy.  Only a few months ago when we handed over the manuscript for our "Sewn Toy Tales" book, I had a little bit of free time on my hands - so what did I do?  Started dreaming about what I could do next!

It was when I was in Fiji a while ago that I started seriously putting together plans to release a new pattern/design label. Melly & me will still be well and truly in action, but I also felt the need for a bit of a new direction and something a little different to focus on.

So I would like to introduce to you my new pattern label... 

 

As you may have already deducted from the logo, "Sew Little" will be a pattern range aimed as all things baby!  There will be toys, quilts, accessories, decorations and hopefully some clothing as well - all aimed at 0-2s and their mummies.  I hope to play a little more with stitchery and applique in this label and basically just plan to have a whole lot of fun making cute things!

The patterns should be finalised and ready for order by stores at the start of next week, so I thought I might use this week to introduce you to my first five "Sew Little" patterns.  

Today I am introducing you to "Time for a Change". This pattern is for a handy baby change clutch. I wish I had have had one of these when I was in nappy season!  This clutch is great for taking along with you when you want to travel light with your little one.  It folds out to be a wipe clean change mat and has two fold out pockets that are just the right size for your wipes and one or two nappies; fold it all up and take it with you to always be prepared.  This clutch would also easily fit into your nappy bag when you need to carry a little more with you.

I hope that you like pattern number 1 from "Sew Little", and I will be back tomorrow to share the next one with you!   Ahhhhh, no more secrets - what a relief!

Great timing I have just become a grandmother and love making all things baby. I hope there will be some clothes patterns as I have not really found any graet ones yet, I'm sure that is a bout to change. Congratulations

Me being out of babies in our group of family and friends will patiently wait for a series of patterns for old ladies... LOL!

What a clever cookie you are, Melly (and obviously one for whom relaxing is a foreign concept!)That's a great pattern; I can see it being a real winner. I think I will be making that for some new mums I know; it's so practical and pretty.
