Nixo Handmade

I made this skirt for the Simplicity 2226 sew along hosted by Anna Graham of Noodlehead. I made one in cotton and one in corduroy. It was easier than I expected.

Yesterday's clutch. I'm going to try a few new patterns this week, both purchased and of my own creation. I'm looking for something new for the shop.

Today's tally so far: 1 raglan t shirt, 1 custom wrist wallet, and 1 fleece owl hat for Zoe's Halloween costume. Progress is being made. Now on to the new clutch pattern.

Had a great time at School House Craft this weekend. So much good information and so many interesting people. I'm looking forward to next year already.

Nico's new pants, upcycled from his dad's old pants. I added some train fabric to satisfy his train obsession. I used Dana's flat front pants pattern: http://www.dana-made-it.com/2008/07/tutorial-flat-front-pants-pockets.html

Is working on some kids' birthday shirts. I'm switching to American Apparel blanks. Will post pictures when they are finished.

Will be at the Seattle Square Market in Occidental Park, Seattle tomorrow from 11a to 6p.

Is working on a batch of wrist wallets in anticipation of my first day at the Seattle Square farmers' market. I'll be there on the 11th.

I'm working on some kid size wrist wallets. There are a few in the shop (nixohandmadekids.etsy.com) and many more in progress. The first few were claimed by my kids.
