I'm getting started a little earlier on my Christmas sewing this year.
It isn't even December and I'm half-way through Cozy's pajamas!
Target has had some really cute little girl jammies lately, so I've had to up my game...
...by adding cute bows...
....and ricrac on the cuffs and pockets.
Christmas pillowcases are also in the works.
I've been showing a remarkable amout of self-restraint (in deference to Tony) and haven't yet put up a single Christmas decoration. ...but the second Thanksgiving is over, all bets are off.
So, I bought these fabrics with specific children in mind....and said children are being difficult...and not liking my choices.
Cozy wonders why on Earth I'd think she wanted little dogs in snow gear.
It isn't as though she tries to spend every free hour of her life watching Pound Puppies...oh, wait....she does.
But nope, she wants the much more grown-up Merry Christmas deer I chose for Sofia.
Really, Coze?
Lucky for me, Sofia is happy to have the Moose fabric (that somehow refers to one of her many crazy "fandoms"), which Anthony rejected. He claims his favorite color is red, but he really wants the blue snowman print on his pillowcase.
Silly children. At least they will have soft, christmasy pillowcases to rest their silly heads on.
Isn't it terrible when kids have opinions of their own. Love the ric rac and I'm totally impressed your already sewing for Christmas! (we've been listening to Christmas music daddy started it)
ReplyDeleteNice reference to "Tony's War on Christmas Decoration." Internet, you haven't heard both sides of the story!
ReplyDeleteYou can do a guest post to defend yourself. :)
DeleteMy mom made my kids both Christmas and Halloween pillowcases. They love them. I think you picked super cute fabric for yours!
ReplyDeleteI love the jammie pants!! So so so cute with the ric rac and fantastic fabric. I've never even thought of Christmas pillowcases, but it's a cute idea!
