Tops

I was thinking about making some tops for the monkey pants.
Monkey pants got a lot of compliments from customers at the last Handmade Mafia show, so I thought it would be more fun if you can coordinate and buy matching tops and monkey pants.

Here are some samples I made.
Girls puffed sleeve t-shirt.

This cow pattern look so cute with green dotted fabric, do you think so too?
Pattern on pattern looks so much fun, unique, and one of a kind.
I can't make the same ones because my fabric stock is so limited and I don't usually get a hole bunch of one kind of fabric.
Aaaand, they are imported from Japan!
So it's truly one of a kind.
As for the Japanese fabrics, first, the pattern is so cute and second, the quality is really good and last, they are just so different and unique especially in Canada.
At the same time, I have a lot of fun making those as every time it's different!

Size varies from about 6months-3yrs for the monkey pants, and 1-7yrs for the tops.
This is what I am thinking to do now.
And if time allows, I want to make some hats and accessories for kids and mama.

Stay tuned, I made some cool pants and tops for boys too :)

New stuff

I have been making monkeys of course, and last night I made new things.
This pyramid shape little stuff is a key holder.
There is a slit on the bottom and a key ring inside so you can put keys.
I really like it because I have a lot of keys (usually, a car key, home key, and post box key) and usual flat key holders aren't big enough to put all my keys.
And also they look cute. You can even use them as home decor.
I might want to put more additions though. It's just too simple for me.
Anyway, I will bring lots of new stuff to the next show.

More Monkeys coming.

Hi all,

Today, I have more pictures to show you.
I just did a quick sewing this morning and made my son a pair of monkey pants.
I used cars patterned fabric for the bum, simple yet cute.

I also made my son a pair of pants (the navy striped one in behind).
And in the front is the another monkey pants which I made a little while ago.
They are really cute but again, I don't have a daughter. lol

The last ones are the pair I made for my son last year.
They are one size smaller (6mo-1yr) but he is still wearing them (even though he is almost 2yr).
Personally, I think they still look good.

A few images of monkey pants.

Hi, I took some pictures of my son wearing monkey pants.
He is 2 yrs old, average size.
And he is wearing size 1-2y monkey pants ,but I think that wearing them in cropped or shorter lengths also work. ( I mean he is going to wear them this summer and fall  in shorter lengths)
For girls, wear them under skirt makes monkey pants look even cuter!
They fit like leggings or skinny pants, so your child can wear them in many ways.

They just look perfect on baby bums :)



Have a great day! (even though it's gonna snow later...)

Monkey monkey monkey :)

I got a few orders from my friends after I put a picture of monkey pants on this blog.
Thank you for your order!
I am so exited that people like those pants.
Anytime my kids are wearing monkey pants, they get a lot of compliments, so I have been thinking selling those one day.
And I did!
Maybe I should become a monkey pants seller :P

Anyway, here are some pics of new monkey pants.

I made one for my baby, but he got dirt on them before I take a picture..

I will post pictures of my baby wearing those later to give you an idea how they look like.

They only come in infant sizes because they fit perfectly on diaper bums :)

Order made Pants

I got an order from my friend the other day and I made two pairs of monkey pants(we call them monkey pants because they look like monkey's bum) for her twin girls.

I put a pocket in front and bear face on bum part.
Oh, I wish I had a baby girl..

Anyway, I am thinking about taking some kid's clothes to the next Handmade Mafia show and see whats up and hopefully take some orders.

I am not sure if I can be in for the next event but next one is on May 8.

I will update details later.

xoxo
