Baby Blues

I love this fabric. The same pattern comes in a few different colors so next time there's a sale I'm going to stock up. I did buy enough of this to make two nursing covers to if you like it as much as I do let me know. This one's for a friend who just had a little boy last week. Sylvia has started "helping" me sew. She likes sitting on my lap while I'm at the machine and playing with the pins.

Baby Girl Burp Cloths

Here is a special order of baby girl burp cloths. It was fun but difficult for me to pick out girly fabric that didn't have to work for a nursing cover too. I really like how they turned out. The black fabric is my favorite.


I bought extra fabric so if anyone is looking for a baby girl gift let me know. Hopefully I'll get to the fabric store to stock up on some boy fabric.out

Black and White

I've had this fabric for quite some time and have always really liked it. Last week I finished a nursing cover for a friend and got to use the fabric.



There is also a matching burp cloth but I don't love how it turned out. For some reason the nursing covers have gotten easier and easier to make while the burp clothes are getting harder. I have an order of burp cloths to finish today and so far they're already going better!

Pink, Pink, Pink

A high school friend ordered these a few weeks ago. I like seeing the two burp cloths side by side here. I really don't know which style I like better.

Pink Dots

Another nursing cover finished and gifted. Sylvia now likes sitting on my lap while I sew. It can make things a little more difficult but she usually behaves herself. She likes to set fabric on the machine and put the pins on the pin cushion.

Baby Bird

Last night I hosted a baby shower with the help of a couple of friends. It was wonderful to have people over to our home since we haven't done that for quite a while.


My first flower arrangement made strictly from cut flowers and leaves (nothing from the store).


Guests wrote a note for guest of honor on bird shaped paper cutouts.


Bird magnets for the party favor.

Nursing Cover Fabric

I bought new fabric a few weeks ago. Now that school is out, I'm finally getting some use out of it. Half of my purchases are already claimed for specific people but here are the three that remain.



You can also look back at my April 1st post to see other available fabric. I've used the back left and the front two middle ones already.
