My organic line for kids~ Made by a Mama
















Today I want to show off some of the new clothing I have been making for my Made By A Mama line. I design, sew, and hand dye with low impact dyes. I use organic cotton and hemp blend fabrics,which are so soft and feel really great to wear. I have been making appliques since I started sewing , I started sewing and selling clothing in 1994 (on the lots of Grateful Dead shows) . Lately I have been adding a lot of really cute appliques to my organic clothing for children. It makes the clothing really fun and it'a a great way to use up some of my multitude of scraps. I hate to throw them away because it just seems so wasteful. I will be adding a lot of new items coming up so keep checking to see some fun new items~

They would make a perfect gift or just a great purchase for your little one. Check out her shop and while you are there cruise around etsy and where you could finish all of your christmas shopping without leaving the house.

Paper Nor Plastic Reusable Bags






These reusable bags from Paper Nor Plastic are great. I received two of them when I had some of my clothing designs in an eco-friendly fashion show in Vegas. I use them all of the time. They are really strong, much stronger than any of the other reusable bags I have. I have loaded them up beyond belief with no problems. My Whole foods bags, which seem like little more than really strong paper ripped shortly after I bought them. Trader joe's also has some great bags, but they really don't compare to these Paper Nor Plastic bags. They have a deal when you buy three at $9.99 each you get one free.
