Crafty

every once in a while the bug bites me. i can go for months without knitting or sewing or even thinking about doing anything creative, but every once in a while i go a bit crazy with the crafty. despite the glorious sunshine and the warm air i made my way to the fabric store and then to target to get some supplies.
here's what i came home with:
cloth diapers, snap in front baby shirt and some pretty fabric.

i have a few reasons to get creative. august's teacher is having a baby soon and the class is throwing her a baby shower AND i'm a part of this website called Project of the Month (there's still PLENTY of time to join in gals).

so.
i whipped up some all purpose cloths for the spit-up/messy food/drool that Ms. Marcia will be faced with on a daily basis.

and a cute little onesie . dude. i love the shirt. i used the same fabric from the cloths and some heat-n-bond type material. super fun. super easy.

now that i've been bitten i may have to spend some time this weekend sitting in the cool of my basement cutting and sewing.

thanks, it was a quick and easy project, you should try it for your next baby shower.
how'd you do with the needle felting by the way?

i wish i could impress you and say that i did the needle felting... but i couldn't get it done in time for the shower. i really do want to give it a shot, though. i need my jen around to give me some craft-y support and encouragement!

kustuck said...

ooh, so the shirts don't require sewing, huh? i'm on it!

Jennifer said...

well...you do have to sew that edge around it...and i did sew the flower on after i ironed it to the shirt...just in case, but it was totally easy and you COULD do it.
