MAGPIE'S MUMBLINGS

A blog about my interests, which include fabric landscapes and various and assorted other artsy pursuits and sometimes known to contain mumblings of a random nature.

More and more

 and.....we have another little outfit heading out in the mail....


Pattern is THIS one for the dress and THIS one for the hat,
diaper cover is the same as I used in the previous post.

and....another landscape starts using this photo for inspiration...


Once more using a photo with the
kind permission of Dale Stewart

Here's the beginning....



- Have a peek through the gallery of THIS artist.

- THIS is going in my awwww folder for future reference.  While you're there be sure to scroll down and see all the other amazing free toy patterns!  There's enough there to keep this Grandma happy for a long time!

- There's no pattern for THIS and I don't know who to attribute it to, but it's worth a look.  (If you happen to know who made it, let me know and I'll give proper credit)

- THIS looks like a fun tutorial to try.

Today's quote is from Martin Luther King - "I look to a day when people will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the content of their character"

    1. Don't hold your breath until it's done! There's a ton of room for mess-ups before it gets there.

  3. I used to love making clothing for little ones, and what you are making is just lovely.

    You are moving right along on the next landscape.

    God bless.

    1. Thank you Jackie! This is the first little girl I've ever made clothing for so it's definitely a learning curve!

    1. It's fun to contemplate the fact that she'll be wearing a few things that nobody else has. I'm not a seamstress so I'm learning as I go.

  5. Ooh, that fabric and the pattern for the sundress are just adorable. Excited to see another old vehicle landscape. :)

    1. I liked this pattern too and I think it will work later in the year too if she wears a onesie beneath it. And I'm excited to do another vehicle too.

  6. I have a feeling someone is finding out how enJOYable it is to sew for a little girl. SO cute. I love bonnets too which is something my little great grandson doesn't need.

    1. Yes, I must admit it's fun to sew for a wee girl for a change. As for grandsons - bucket hats are always welcome!

    Sherry of createology: Such an adorable outfit for the little princess. Your new rusty truck landscape will be so much fun to create. Some of these links take my breath away. Today’s quote reminds me of a wonderful book I just read. “In Her Own Design” by Piper Huguley. It is a heartwarming story of trials and successes back in the days of Jim Crow Alabama. It really made me sad to think of what we white humans did to black humans. I got the book at the local library.

    1. I'm certainly enjoying sewing for a wee little girl.
      And yes it's sad what humans can do to one another forgetting that, aside from the colour of our skin, we are all the same inside.

    1. I think she'll get more wear out of the hat than the dress because apparently it's already a tad tight on her. Oh well....I'll just have to make her another one!

Thank you so much for leaving comments! I appreciate you taking the time out of your busy life to talk to me. It's wonderful to know that someone is actually reading my mumblings and even more fun if I can connect with you and visit your blog.
