Growing Baby and Children's Clothing: Our Collections Grow with Your Child and We Love It
When I became a mom, I noticed how quickly my son was growing. Clothes piled up – but some styles fit him longer, often it was the sleeves that no longer fit. This inspired me to sew the first prototypes of growing baby and children's clothing with my grandmother.
The First Steps: Sewing Growing Baby Clothes
We sat down in my grandmother's kitchen and brought out her heavy, old sewing machine. My grandma is incredibly quick; she fetched pens, drawing paper, and tape. With a design in mind, we began sketching the very first prototype on paper. This was adjusted to fit my son, adding a few centimeters in some places and reducing them in others.
The Very First Growing Prototype
When we were happy with the paper prototype, we finally took up the sewing machine and the first growing linen bodysuit was sewn. After a few hours of work and with much pride, my son could wear the first linen prototype. And so our journey into the world of growing baby and children's clothing began.
Why Our Collection Grows
We aim to design timeless collections that can be worn for a long time. I personally associate many of my son's outfits with specific memories and moments we spent together. For example, the merino wool suit with buttons, which he wore on cool summer evenings when we dined out. This suit is excellent at regulating warmth and cold, making it a great companion for sleep as well. The exciting part is that we have many more winters ahead with this merino wool suit.
How the Collection Grows
An important point is the length of sleeves and pants. From experience, it's the arms and legs that "shoot up". Thus, the idea is that sleeves are initially rolled up and then fit for a long time. The same goes for the pant legs. Our linen pants feature a natural rubber band that is elastic and sustainable. The tops have a wrap technique, allowing them to adjust to the child's body.
We love designing our growing baby and children's clothing and seeing how our collections grow with the children. It is not only sustainable but also preserves precious memories in each garment.
Our loving and playful dog
Hardly anyone can get past this playful and cuddly dog – Monti is our star and she enchanted my heart from the very first second.
Monti is one of my biggest dreams in life. She came into our family 3 years ago and I love every day with her.
Her character and her loving nature inspired me to write the La Ferme Stories.
From a drawing to a character
What we love about Monti?
Her playful nature
The little dog never misses an opportunity to play. She plays enthusiastically with every dog she meets, chases butterflies and even drags her toys to the house to encourage everyone to join in.
Her cuddly nature
The little dog Monti loves to cuddle. Whenever she gets the chance, she snuggles up to people.
She enjoys wrapping herself in soft blankets and is constantly looking for a warm hug - or jumping onto our laps despite her size.
Your infinite energy
The little dog is bursting with energy. From the moment she wakes up until she goes to bed, she is constantly on the move. She runs through the garden, jumps over everything that comes her way and rushes around with tireless joy. Whether she is playing, running or romping - she never takes a break. Even at the end of a long day, she still seems full of energy and is always ready for the next adventure.
Your willingness to help
Monti is always ready to help. Whether it's cheering someone up, picking up a toy or keeping a watchful eye on everyone to make sure they're OK - Monti is always there. She follows her people everywhere and tries to help with every task with her lovable nature. Whether it's cleaning up, gardening or just being a loyal companion - her willingness to help knows no bounds.
