Woolies

I finally gathered enough courage to take a scissor to all the cashmere I've been hoarding in my craft space.

It's really important to me that Tessa stay warm through the upcoming months. That focuses her body's energy and growing and thinking and playing - rather than trying to keep warm. She like to take her clothes off and I'm lucky to win the battle of socks or slippers. I needed to add wool to her wardrobe since it is so efficient at keeping little bodies warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

I bought a ton of sweaters for sewing purposes but I couldn't help but feel resistant to cutting them up, especially since my sewing skill set is still at the novice level.

With the help of my favorite blog Our Ash Grove, I did it! I made woolies for my girl.









She calls them her princess pants. I think I won!

I’m Stephanie, the mind and Momma behind The Heirloom Family. I created this blog as a way to capture the magic of our family and the beauty of every day slow and simple living. I also hope it serves as an inspiration to you as well.

Nestled in our little corner of the Earth in Western New York, I am lucky enough to share my home with my husband and our daughter, along with 4 cheerful cats.

We strive for a wholesome life, one that is slow and steady. I want to breathe it in, this time we have, and I might just be lucky enough to see the magic in it all.

There are so many things in life that I love – nature. crochet. photography. gardening. cooking. faith. honey. reading. sunsets and sunrises. flowers. ballet. enchantment. Dave Matthews Band. the moon. rainbows. babywearing. lavender and sandalwood. celebrations. music. hippie. poetry. love. the forest. romantic history. cats. dreamcatchers. wool. heritage. family. lilac. red wine. memories.
