I’m off to deliver some of my handmade clothing to the mama of a little boy. Included in the package:
a pair of Banyan-style velveteen trousers, 100% cotton and so soft
my son’s current favorite – a wool blazer (too small tho’ he doesn’t think so!)
check the elbow patches as they are too legit!
a bowling shirt made of shot cotton
a simply beautiful semi-sheer high-quality cotton yellow shirt –
I made this for the kids’ wedding ensemble –
and I can’t believe I didn’t take more pictures!
Nels’ much beloved flannel shirt –
which was also the garment used
for the internet-famous plaid shirt sew-a-long
and finally:
an ivory-and-tomato semi-sheer summer-weight hoodie!
And of course, I’ve packed a couple other storebought items that are still in good shape.
It feels good to take a little extra time to get garments to homes that will really love them. Sometimes I mail these off; sometimes I drive them to friends (like today). When I mail them, most people Paypal me shipping or a little extra. But of course, mostly, I am trying to get some loved hand-me-downs to some great kids out there!
