Fabulous Fleece...

I recently worked with a wonderful mama on a partial trade. Elaine from Tata Tushies, created some beautiful knit longie sets for me and in turn, I created some soft and cuddly fleece longies, a diaper and some beach pants for her. I love doing trades! They are such fun as you get to indulge a bit in some items you may not have searched out and purchased otherwise.

First are my oringinal Ooga Booga Beach Pants, featuring two snap positions to secure roll in place, leg and bum pockets, embellished knee, and an adorable little Ooga peeking out of the back pocket.A spin off of the Ooga's - I now have Iced Giraffes Beach Pants! These are adorable and the colors really show off the giraffes in the fabric.Next is a pair of Steel Blue longies embellished with a little train on the leg. These longies feature my Grow-With-Me cuff for longer wear.And last is a cute set including my improved medium bamboo quick dry fitted with lay in soaker and an adorable pair of small Ooga Girl longies.

Ooga Booga Beach Pants, Dry Nights Girl Boxers and more!...

I was excited to get a couple orders for Ooga Booga Beach Pants! I have been wanting to make some more of these, but time has not allowed. These are so fun! As always, they feature a little Ooga peeking out the back pocket. I have also added two snap settings for even more ways to wear them. These Longies could possibly be the most versatile pants in your baby's closet! Ohhhh... and coming soon... Iced Giraffe Beach Pants! Stay tuned... there may be a pair of mediums hitting the instock page too!

Here are two Ooga Booga Beach Pants side by side - front and back views.
Here is another new item from the sewing room of A Lovely Start! Dry Nights Ditto Daddy GIRL Boxers! The boys aren't the only ones who get to snuggle down in soft comfy boxers anymore. The girl boxer feature two decorative snaps in front.

This pair is in a size 3T made with my new Fireworks! print fleece.
Inside the Dry Nights Ditto Daddy girl Boxers is a soft absorbent insert, topped with Bamboo Velour and backed with PUL.
A snuggly pair of 3T fall longies/ jammie pants in Mr. Hoppy print.
Soft and snuggly medium Autumn Patchwork longies with contrasting cuffs.
And last but not least... a few G-Diaper inserts. These also work great as a doubler inside a fitted for naps and nighttime, with a soft, stay-dry layer against the skin.

Ooga Booga Beach Pants and Ditto Daddy Girl Boxer Trainers...

I had a fantastic mama request a pair of custom Beach Pants and ohhhh, I am in love with these. These little blue and orange Ooga Booga Beach Pants feature a roll up cuff that snaps securely up to convert longies to board shorts or manpris. They also feature an open pocket because every little boy needs a place to store rocks and bugs and other "boy" stuff. (Sorry the pictures are not the greatest - my hubby has my good camera on a business trip!)
