Safari Set & Organic Fabric Giveaway!


In celebration of spring I thought I'd share the His & Hers Safari Set I made for my little girl and littlest guy.  Perfect for the warm, sunny weather heading our way.  I used the new Mighty Jungle fabric collection from:

I love how they are organic cotton, but still colorful & fun.  These prints are ideal for reversible goodies so I excitedly whipped these designs up.  I used their jungle animal, gold giraffe & pumpkin prints to make one of my Reversible Serena Dresses with some matching ruffle-bum bloomers & a reversible, ruffled sun hat:



Who doesn't love babies with ruffle bums?


I love the ease of making one outfit, but getting two looks: 


I made my little guy a reversible safari vest with cargo shorts & reversible bucket hat.  Perfect while searching for big game as shown:


I used the jungle animals again but with the aqua & leaf prints.  I made bias tape from the aqua to accent the armholes.


Flap pockets on the shorts & vest are perfect for all the things a little explorer needs to carry.


And the wide brimmed, reversible hat keeps little faces in the shade:


I made coordinating rhino appliques for his hat & the front of her dress from my jungle scraps, so they'd go together, but not be too matchy:


Want to get some Organic Mighty Jungle for yourself?  Timeless Treasures has generously provided some of this new collection for today's giveaway.  TWO lucky winners will receive 1/2 yard cuts of a jungle animal print & two coordinating colors.  All are 100% organic cotton!
