Generation Next

     Im sure im not the only one frustrated at the clothing choices out there for kids . I hate going into large retail stores and buying a $20 pair of pants. Only to try to squeeze them on my kids, the next month and they wont even button. Kids out grow things to quickly to spend a lot of money their clothing.
     Last summer I decided I would take it anymore. I brought a sewing machine and got to work. Through blogs, lots of google searches and hours on pinterest I have taught myself how to sew. Now I feel like im at a place to help others. I love being able to make the kids things. In this blog I will share my sewing knowledge (funny joke) and offer free patterns with picture tutorials. I will also show you how thrifting can be fun and very worth it. I love going thrifting !! 
     

If you like my blog please comment and follow so I wont get discouraged and stop blogging lol

    I love thrifting too! I made a ring sling carrier from a bed sheet from the thrift store and I made all my babies cloth diaper soakers and flats from thrift store sheets. I make my sons pants from adult pants using my altered version of the MADE pattern. I just love thrifting like you, plus there's new stuff everyday! You cant beat that :) and you can find all the old school kids toys for cheap. Ugh now I want to go to Savers! Lol.

    Sarita, I am so thrilled to see all of these young mothers sewing now!!! I am a grandmother that started sewing way before I had my own children but loved sewing for them and now my grandchildren. Can I motivate my daughter and daughter-in-law to sew???? Nope! But I am so happy to see all of ya'll keeping it up! Continue blogging....and sewing!! :)
