little boy toy tote

I've been dreaming of these for months [emphasize the "s" in month]. My two boys are constantly trying to pack around a bazillion toys at one time and I find them scattered throughout my house as they fall from their full hands.

Little boy toy totes:


little boy toy tote I
little boy toy tote III
little boy toy tote II
little boy toy tote IV


-one large pocket in back,
-two pockets on front (one small, one big),
-jean pocket attached on front,
-side hook on left side for hanging swords or the like,
-interfaced with super duty duckcloth for durability,
(I knew that they would be stuffed with cars, power rangers, trains,
books, dinosaurs, tools, more cars, so it HAD to be strong)
- tie closures around waist,
- fits my 5 & 3-yr-old perfectly.

The pattern will be up for sale in my etsy shop sometime next week.

V&Co. started a 'link post' for anyone to show what they have been up to. See here.
Little boy toy totes are #13. LOTS of fun projects from so many people.
Thanks V&Co for letting us 'toot our own horns' every once in awhile.

    so so cute. I don't sew nearly enough for my boys. What a great idea. In a week or 2 I want a report...does it really help them keep their toys picked up?!?

    these are way too cute!!! my son loves to just hook things on his belt loops or carry a backpack but that seems pale in comparison to this idea.

Stitches in Thailand & Vietnam

I spent the last two weeks vacationing in Thailand and Vietnam.  They are both incredibly beautiful places and I loved seeing a different part of the world.  The landscapes were full of lush greenery, rice patties, and an occasional wild elephant was spotted.  My favorite part was "trekking" with the elephants along a jungle path to a water hole where we were able to bath and scrub two giant elephants.  I also got to feed them and their little baby.  Truly a highlight of my life.   Another highlight for me is getting to see the talents and skills done in needlework and sewing from other cultures. I'm usually the only one taking pictures of these kinds of things.  I love seeing the fabric they use and the cultural influence in their creations.  I learned about a village of women who created these items after learning to sew.  With the skills they now have, they are able to stay at home with their children and with their income they ar...

poppy fields dress

I LOVE little girl dresses! This material caught me and wouldn't let me leave the store until I bought a yard. It is corduroy and perfect for fall. Within a day and a half, I designed a pattern and completed a dress for my baby girl. I'm finishing up the pattern. Add jacket, bracelet, shoes, hair flower, AND cute baby girl.
