Outfit from three fabrics
I finally worked out what to do with three matching patterned fabrics that have been sitting on my fabric shelf for a while. This is a reversible dress. It has one fabric on the front, a different one on the back, and a different one inside. There are matching pants - that are made from the same fabric as the inside stuff. One of my daughter's long sleeve tees also matches (although its a bit bright really) so she can wear that underneath on cold days.
Some around the house clothes
Long sleeve stripey tee and grey tracky pants. Trackey pants are made from org cotton/hemp fleece, dyed with RIT dyes.
Pressies for the little boy next door
T-shirt and shorts for a birthday present. The shorts are made from old chenille quilts. The t-shirt isn't necessarily suppose to match the shorts!
Bat kids
Matching t-shirt for my boy and dress for my bub. These have a bat pic on them that I hand drew. Fabric is hemp/organic cotton jersey, dyed with low impact fibre reactive dyes. See the edge of my bub's longies too? They are sewn from a wool jumper that I bought from the op shop that had a stain on the front. Lovely stripey pants. They're both wearing long sleeve singlets underneath - my boy's is made from organic cotton, and my bub's is hemp/org cotton jersey.
Matching dresses for the girls
These dresses are made from hemp/organic cotton jersey, that was dyed with low impact fibre reactive dyes. They were first dyed in pink, then tied up and dyed again in a lovely caramel brown.
Sticking with the same colours
This time, something for my older daughter. This track suit is made from hemp/organic cotton fleece, dyed using RIT dyes.
Another pink/red heart dress
This is my favourite red and pink heart dress for my bub. Its nice and long on her, and looks great with her red and pink longies, and the matching beanie (that I made before she was born). Its made from hemp/organic cotton jersey that's been dyed using RIT dyes.
Velour dress for bub
More red and pink. This dress is made from cotton rich velour. I'm not crazy about this shade of pink, so this dress is usually in the nappy bag for when her other pink and red heart dress gets dirty.
Frottee wrap jacket for bub
Frottee is a cotton rich super soft fabric - a bit like soft terry on the outside and fleece on the inside. This is an ottobre pattern.
This jacket, of course, matches all the red and pink clothes!

Lots of red and pink
These longies are for my bub who is now 3 months old. They have been knitted from Treliske organic wool that has been dyed using food colouring.
