Clothes for the
Littlest Hippo

Costumes for the newest member of the cast, sewn by hand — each piece documented here as it comes off the machine. Someday it'll be a whole line, and it already has a name:Clown Chic.

The Blanket Hoodie

“Made from two upcycled blankets”

— Ramya

A coral-striped fleece blanket became the body; a paisley one became the sleeves, the hood, and the kangaroo pocket. Two blankets that used to live on the couch, now warm enough to leave the house in.

A tiny pair of baby pants laid flat on a turquoise background — one leg in chartreuse floral fabric, the other in blue with yellow polka dots

The First Pants

“Sewed a lil pair of baby pants today 🥹”

— Ramya

One leg chartreuse floral, one leg polka dot — cut from thrifted shirts that didn’t work out as shirts. They work out just fine as pants.
