"K" Tshirt, 2 to 3 years

If you've got a kid's birthday coming up, make yourself the most popular grown-up in the whole wide world by giving them a Tshirt with their initial on. Or, how about a number, for their age? Take this from a crazy aunt: kids love this!
These designs are made only to order.
Price: R95 (under 24 months), R100 (from age 2 to 3)

Baby George, 0 to 3 months

So, this grower isn't for sale because it was made specifically for someone... Ma George will be unwrapping it at her baby shower later this week. But, I thought I'd put it up to show you what a personalised grower can look like. New parents are usually so stoked with having their baby's name on a grower that they dress baby in them when leaving hospital.

Gingham dress, pink heart, 12 to 18 months

Here's a girly dress for a toddler. It's the only gingham dress I bought, and so the only one just like this in the whole wide world.

Denim sun hat, maroon Africa

These denim sun hats were so popular last year. The other day, I found a stash of them in a cupboard, and so will be making a few more up over the next couple of weeks.

Stripe grower, blue heart, 3 to 6 months

A bright, fun grower. Do you think the blue heart makes it look like something for a boy? I'm not convinced... I think a little girl could pull it off too.

Polka grower, pink Africa, 0 to 3 months

I got my hands on four polka growers in about August last year, and have had so much fun coming up with different designs for them. This, like the polka vest, is the last of what I have. When I find someone to make growers for me, I'll definitely be making plenty with polka dots and stripes.

Polka vest, pink heart, 12 to 18 months

I was so excited when I found these polka vests just over a year ago. I only managed to get five, and sewed designs onto one every few months. Kinda like a kid trying to make Easter eggs last. Anyway, this is the last of the polka vests - it's been fun!

Flower T, pink heart, 6 to 12 months

Today I've chosen to put up a happy shirt, full of flowers and love and a sense of adventure. I would love to have used an olive green felt for the heart, but haven't managed to find any yet. But - I like the pink!

Born in 2010 grower, red & green, 0 to 3 months

The "Born in 2010" shirts and growers are really popular at the moment. I'm a huge fan of colour, and really like the combination of bright red and green in this grower, which would be fab for either a boy or girl. I'm busy with a stone and white Tshirt, which looks amazing and if course is perfect for I-don't-know-what-it-is-yet babies. Will post a pic of that on Wednesday.

Polka dress, pink heart, 6 to 12 months

Okay, so I'm *loving* this little sun dress! I've managed to get a few, in sizes 6 to 12 months, 12 to 18 months and 18 to 24 months. If you'd like one, please let me know asap; I've a feeling they'll be sold quite quickly.

Green stripe grower, blue Africa, 3 to 6 months


I love the freshness of these colours. This grower is all about summer, and I can just imagine a little boy wearing it while sleeping in the shade of an old tree.

A Bag for Cam


I made this little bag for my best friend's daughter, Cameron, for her fifth birthday. She loves it! They've just been on holiday in Cape Town, and Cam took the bag everywhere with her (and she especially loved the lipgloss I put inside). I'm thinking about adding bags to the Crazy Aunt range... will keep you posted.

Floral T, green Africa, 3 to 6 months


I love this little shirt; it's up there with my favourites. I sewed the design one warm afternoon, sitting on our verandah with the pooches and cat at my feet.
