Snuggle Blankies and Designer Burp Diapers

Finally my computer has enough memory to down and up load some pics! Blogs aren't much fun with out pics so I refrained from posting for awhile.

Who'd have thought styling up some burp rags would be such a hit. Even if babies are just going to drool on them, they are totally cute and worth it. I used yellows, browns, and greens, trying to keep things gender neutral (its for my brother's kid (due August) and they aren't going to find out the gender - or at least not tell us).

Pretty easy to do. I bought some organic diapers from Target and then some fabric scraps and fat quarters from Joann's. I ironed the fabric and aligned it on the diaper and let Bessy (the sewing machine) stitch away!

The blankie was super easy - I have Carlos the tiger cub here modeling one for us. The design on the blankie is Hey Diddle Diddle. Really cute (has a slight bit of blue in it, but I'm hoping my brother's kid is a girl). ;)

  2. Nice! Can you bring those to show off in person when we see each other next week? I wanted to do the SAME THINGS! (I guess great minds think alike, huh?)
