Big boy blanket and pillow ft Mater and Lightening

Monkey loves the movie Cars and Mater is one of his favorites. He was due for a big boy blanket for his bed and I just happened to find all of this fabric for $15! He lucked out basically because Walmart had remnants on sale. Anyway, here it is.

Tutu onesie

Annie had a baby girl. I wanted to make her a tutu because as Annie says, "every little girl needs a tutu." I figured the best way to make a tutu for such a little one would be to attach it to a onesie. Here's what I came up with:



It's a lot harder sewing things onto a onesie then one would think, but I'm happy with how it turned out...hopefully it fits well. I sewed each piece of the colored tutu on separately so it wouldn't restrict the movement of the cotton, then I added a little fabric sash to bring it all together.

Burp Rags and Diaper Bags

This would be stuff I made for Crinners and Cristin but couldn't post because I made similar stuff for Annie and hadn't sent it to her yet.

Two burp rags for Crin, one blue and one yellow.
One for Cristin, green and stripey.
One diaper/wipes carrier for Cristin - larger than intended, but still cute.

A better look at the blue burp rag. These are super easy to clean and have two different textures. jBug loved them - he could cuddle them and there was very little worry if he spit up on them.
