Hooray … I’m glad I’m not alone in the hoarding of baby clothes! 😅😂 yes actually much nicer patterns on the girls clothes than on the boys which is a shame - I always thought boys clothes could be more imaginative rather than just generic ‘boy’ colours but I think they’ve got better over the years . I might follow this up with another substack once I finish the girls’ blankets …unless I get distracted by a new idea that is! 😂😂
Aww I actually admire anybody who doesn’t keep them and manages to pass them on but I’m glad you liked this idea of what to do if you’re a terrible hoarder like me! 😅😂
These are gorgeous! I’ve got a massive plastic bag under the bed 🫣🤫 I also love the idea to use all the patterns in illustrations. I used to find it hard to think of patterns and things for clothes but now I often think of clothes my son or his friends have and it’s much easier and more fun. Making drawings of them is a great idea!
Glad you liked this idea! I had about 8 boxes in the attic! Eek! 🙈 so I’m massively impressed with one bag under your bed 😁 There will be some lovely gems hidden in there no doubt. ❤️
I love this idea!! (Although I’m not ready to acknowledge that my nearly 7 year old is growing up, so her old baby clothes will remain in the loft for a few more years 😅)
So beautiful Lizzy!
My one and only boy is now 13, and I still have heaps of his most special clothes! I love that I have found a mumma who "finds it hard to let go" 🤣😂
I also loved your little drawings! Probably more cute patterns on little girls clothes than boys?
So impressed by these ... only 2 more to go! Unless you're planning another bub 😳😆💙🩷

I love your son's blanket, complete with pockets and horns!!! Such a great way of holding onto memories.
Thanks Rachel. It was one mammoth task but I got there in the end. 2 done… 2 to go! 😅🤪
Ooh 😍 now that is fabulous! Absolutely love it. That a beautiful keep sake for them. Wishing now that I had kept more of my children’s baby clothes.

I am a shocking hoarder in denial 🤫🙈 art supplies don’t count! 🤣but I had to agree to only keeping very few baby items so I kept all their hats! 😂
Aww their little hats! Baby booties are the hardest thing I found to part with. .. I kept a couple 🤫😂

Haha yes but my son is only 1! So plenty more to follow I’m sure 🫣🤣
😂 good luck 😁

Aww you’ve got at least another 7 years of collecting and storing in the attic then I think ☺️🥰❤️
Ha ha, yep, at least😅
What a lovely idea. Can't wait to see the end result!
I’m still knee deep in babygros but determined to get them made! 😅🤪
