If you follow us regularly, whether on the blog, Facebook, or Instagram, you already know it: we’re crazy about pretty fabrics for kids. We love beautiful fabrics in general, of course, but whenever we place a new order with our favorite brands, such as Makeower, Riley Blake, or Art Gallery Fabrics, we look through the new collections for something that will look great on our little ones. Something they and we will love: something that stimulates them and makes our hearts melt.
Today we’re going to show you some of the latest creations we’ve made with these pretty fabrics for kids and make you long to rush to the shop to see what else is there.
Pretty fabrics for kids: our creations
Cool sweatshirt with Animal Heads organic knit fabric
Don’t tell me Pol isn’t absolutely adorable with that smile and his sweatshirt made from Animal Heads organic knit fabric. Because it’s not only beautiful, but also environmentally and socially ecological and sustainable, as guaranteed by its GOTS certification and by Laura’s hands, which sewed it with so much love. Garments made from organic knit fabric are soft, comfortable, and durable. If you want to learn how to make one, you can find the kids’ sweatshirt tutorial in the Lulu Ferris membership.
Pol also has a matching hat that looks great on him, and although we were thinking of posting another photo where he’s wearing it, we love this one so much.
Baby pants with Gold X organic knit fabric
As you can see, when it comes to clothing for little ones, we don’t just make sure the fabric is beautiful; we also want it to be comfortable and soft to the touch, so it feels pleasant for them. That’s why organic knit fabric—in this case, the Gold X design by Evelyckan Desing—was chosen. These are baby pants, roomy enough for a diaper and cute enough for your little one. Laura made them with Pol’s baby brother in mind: Sam, who is on the way.
Full-body bib with Blue Weels byRiley Blake
At Riley Blake, they’re genuine artists when it comes to pretty fabrics for kids, and Blue Wheels is just a small example. In this case, we used it together with blue bias tape and terry cloth, creating a little pocket for storing toys or whatever Martí feels like putting in it :) You can also find the tutorial for making this full-body bib with short sleeves in the Lulu Ferris membership, including the pattern. You’ll see how dramatically you reduce the number of loads of laundry.
Bandana and pacifier clip set with Riley Blake’s yellow XO
It’s obviously another fabulous fabric for making millions of things. Yellow is a color full of energy that stimulates perception and creativity. In the XO design, they combine a perfect shade of yellow with a white geometric print for a spectacular effect that’s very fun and pleasing to the eye. In this case, we used it to make a bandana and pacifier clip set, which we also explain how to make in two tutorials on our YouTube channel: how to make bandanas and how to make pacifier clips.
Bath cape with Serengeti Beasties by Clothworks
A brilliant invention for turning bath time into a fun game. It transforms a towel into a superpowered bath cape that can turn your little one into an animal. Using terry cloth, yellow bias tape, and Serengeti Beasties by Clothworks, we created this fun piece, which is very easy to make. You’ll also find the bath cape tutorial with little ears in the Lulu Ferris membership, and remember that as a member (only $10 USD per month), you get a 5% discount on every product in the shop and access to all past, present, and future tutorials.
