Handmade Bits and Pieces

Vintage Chenille.  Specializing in unique patchwork quilts and soft toys for children.  Upcycled.  Vintage Chenille.  Each piece of fabric unique, with it's own story and history.  Each toy and quilt handcrafted, plush, soft.

Leah lives in a small town in Australia.  She collects old bedspreads and upcycles the material to create these beautiful vintage patchwork quilts and plush toys. 















Leah's big sellers seem to be the birdie rattles and the Scottie dog 


You will also find elephants, rabbits, and perhaps other animals running through her shop at times.  For a soft and plush toy that your child will love to snuggle, or for a custom creation made from vintage chenille, check out the shop!

Wonderland

Meet Rachel from The Wonderland Studio.  She is the designer and painter and illustrator in the Studio.  Rachel loves painting, and has extended her talent into the world of children's decor - creating colorful and modern mobiles.



Referred to as kinetic mobiles, they are hanging sculptures of moving parts that freely and constantly sway and rotate (assuming there is movement in the air).  All of the mobiles are spacially related - with names like the Nebula, the Big Dipper, the Mini Orbit, and Supernova.

By the way, her sales are great, her feedback is great, and her pictures are great - everything that we look for in an Etsy seller!
  The Nebula seems to be a stellar seller.  And keep in mind that she can do custom orders and match almost any space or decor! 



As for Rachel, she provides some information about herself as well.
"I live by the sea.
I love sushi.
I have one child, one husband, one dog and one cat.
My favorite color is blue-green.
I like to run.
I love to run with my dog.
I love to paint.
I love making things.
I love Etsy!"

Mo Rockin Momma

Maggie is a Mo-Rockin Momma.  She lives in Alaska, homeschools 5 children, and works from home creating the pieces that you will find at M&M Baby. 

In the shop, you will find uniquely designed unpadded ring slings, wrap carriers, pouch slings and "whatever strikes my fancy", which includes hooded towels, doll slings, blankets, burp cloths, dresses, onesies, and stuffed owls.  Maggie explains that she tends to get bored creating the same stuff over and over again, so her inventory is ever changing!

So, about that uniquely designed unpadded ring sling, which would be M&M Baby's big seller and Maggie's claim to fame.  The M&M Baby Sling is an inward folded fan that opens up into a perfect pouch for your baby. The Ring Slings flare out at the shoulder seam and form a deep pouch or pocket for your child to lay or sit in. As with any ring sling, M&M Baby Slings still require some adjusting, but not nearly as much as some of the other styles out there. They can be worn on either shoulder with the best comfort and adjust ability coming from wearing the folds down. Each sling is between 28"& 34" wide depending on the weight of the fabric. Unlike so many other slings, this means you have plenty of fabric to cover your growing child. Each sling is 2 1/2 yards long, before being sewn and fully adjustable.  How about some pictures:


and a pouch sling:

 

and the wrap style baby carrier:


So, for all of your babywearing needs, see what the Mo-Rockin Momma has designed. 
"Loving and nurturing our children into adulthood is my passion."
