baby jean

I added some new items to my organic etsy shop over the weekend.  I'm starting to sell my sets as individual pieces now.  So people can choose their price range a little easier.




This is the blue moon burp cloth set.  The blue fabric with brown stripes is flannel and the solid blue is sateen.  They are both backed with organic terry, soft and absorbent.



 Whispering Grass cuddle blanket.  This is my favorite pattern because it is gender neutral, but still pretty enough for Momma to love.  And this is one of my favorite colors too.


If organic is important to you than these fabrics will be a treat .  I do love vintage, but I have never felt anything softer.  Organic fleece is what I use for the back of the blankets and the don't pill up like other fleece.  And they feel like the most expensive of cashmere.


These fabrics are designed here in California by Harmony Art.  Look over at her website to learn more about organics and see some of her new fabric patterns.  Let me know your favorites!

i forgot

You know at the first of each month, I post some new creations on my Glitter & grunge artist page.  Well, I forgot to let you know what I made for the month of November.

blue moon gift set

It isn't anything new.  But it is something that I love and feel so good about making.  You have seen these before.  And I hope to be ordering some more of this organic fabric from Harmony Art soon.

You can buy one of these sets from me if you visit my etsy site.

Each set includes a cuddle size blanket, two burp cloths, a wash mitt, and a little stuffed toy "ella".  If you would like to see and feel these soft fabrics for yourself, just email me and I can send you a free fabric sample.  You will not be disappointed!

baby jean organics


organic fabrics


Some exciting news! I will be adding a new line to katie jean in June called baby jean organics. I have also begun a new blog and etsy shop just for baby jean organics. I will be able to give you more info on them when I have something made to post.

It will begin as a small collection, containing four items, a baby blanket, burpcloth, wash mitt, and stuffed toy elephant. I was able to find some beautiful organic fabric from Harmony Art. Made by a designer here in California, living near Fort Bragg. She has created some beautiful prints and coordinating solids in a diverse array. I have chosen five differing prints that are all so cute, yet clean and modern.

My first real love is katie jean and my love of all things vintage. You know the best thing is the hunt, finding all of those special fabrics that were once hidden away. Creating with organic fabrics just seemed like a natural next step. It's fun for me to continue working in an environmental way. My mom always called my katie jean work "recycling". Now it is considered "repurposing", which sounds so much nicer!

A special thank you to my friend Rene for encouraging me to begin this new line. She helped me search for fabrics and find my first baby jean customers. You are great, thanks for keeping me going!
