My mom sewed a lot of clothes for us in the '50s-'60s, but fabric was cheap as you noted. She did it to both economize and be creative. I thought I would do the same. But between going back to work earlier than I had hoped to, and the cost of buying sewing supplies, I ended up doing very little sewing for my kids in the '70s-'80s. These days I couldn't do a buttonhole if you paid me!

LWD clothes look adorable and practical. The prices are more than I would want to spend all at once, but with quality you can use them again for the next child, and specify what you want for the baby shower, birthdays, grandma gifts, and so forth, so I think it would be doable to shop there if you wanted to. Clearly she has found a market, and more power to her!
