Little Cap Sew Along Day 3

Making the Little Cap is really easy, right? Please add your photos to the Flickr group so we can see what you've made! Are you interested in making a smaller cap for babies? Interested in seeing another little change I made? Jump on over to the Day 3 Instructions.

The kids are starting swim lessons here today. Wish us luck! We may need it!

A special thanks to those of you who have added your Go To Dresses to the Flickr group! I love seeing what you've made! Thanks to Elsie Marley for including the dress in her roundup of Fall clothes inspiration for her Kid's Clothes Week Challenge coming up next week. Are you joining along?

Little Cap Sew Along Day 2

I intended (or hoped) to make another cap last night because some of my pictures are sorely lacking for the sew along. I didn't do it though. I've declared this vacation week around here. We'll be swimming and reading and doing a bit of math and spelling but that's about it! 

This is the lovely (non) recipient of the hat I didn't make:

Little cap 094
She is my adorable, hilarious niece. You know how some kids are just exploding with personality, even at a very young age? That's her! Here she is modeling a cap that clearly doesn't fit. That's okay because it only stayed on for about 3 seconds. Just long enough for me to snap one picture. 

She is modeling the altered size 0-6 month hat. Stop by tomorrow to find out how to alter your pattern for that size.

You might notice the hat matches the booties I showed off earlier.

You'll also want to stop by to see how to make sure your hat looks like this on top:

Ready to finish up your cap? Day 2 instructions are HERE. 

I'm linking these finishes to a few other blogs this week. Go check them out. There are also more pictures of finished hats in the Day 2 instructions!

The Little Cap Sew Along is finally here! This is such an easy project, it hardly needs a sew along, but it's fun to make things with others, isn't it? I'll also be showing you some pattern variations including size variations. So, are you ready to join in?

If you haven't bought your pattern yet, go to the Leila & Ben etsy shop and buy the pattern. Mention The Train To Crazy to get $2 refund until the end of September. It is a PDF pattern so it will be emailed to you and you can join us right away!

Now, head on over to Day 1 Instructions!

The little cap that started it all

I've made 5 Little Caps to date. This is the one that started it all.

Cap gray 082
I made it just like the example on the pattern. I love the little argyle.

Cap gray 081
She calls it "Maggie's hat" and she's been sad to be separated from it for the last month.

Cap gray 083
Our boxes are being delivered to our new house next week so I figure sometime in the next month or two we'll find it. And once again she'll have her Maggie's hat.

September 13-17 I'll be doing another sew along with this cute little unisex hat from Leila & Ben. The pattern can be made in sizes 6 mo-5 years and it is perfect for little boys or little girls. I'll be showing off different variations of the hat so you can get some ideas. I'll also show you how to make it small enough to fit your tiny guys and girls. I can testify that this hat is great for beginnings. It takes about an hour to an hour and a half to complete and is so cute when you're done! You won't want to miss this one.

And, as always, if you are joining this sew along you get a discount on the pattern! This $2 discount is available for the entire month of September to my readers. Mention The Train To Crazy in the notes and you will get your $2 refunded to you after purchase. You can buy the patterns at the Leila & Ben Etsy shop. 

Stay tuned for many more discounts and giveaways to come this month! 

Are there any patterns or tutorials you are especially interested in hearing about? Any product giveaways you'd love to see (or give)? What have you been sewing for baby lately?
