car seat covers!!

a friend of mine who recently had a baby got a cover like this online. she got hers on babysteals for a discount, but when i went looking, i found that they retail for $90! there's NO way i'd ever pay that much for a car seat cover! so, i decided to make my own! it has a cut out for the carrier handle, as well as a little window for peeking. the window has velcro on each corner to keep the flap down when baby is sleeping. you can tuck it into the handle opening for when baby is awake or for show-and-tell! these covers will keep germs away from your precious little one since people won't be able to touch baby. they will also keep baby warm through the cold months.

birthday girl!

i made this shirt for my sweet niece who turned 4 a few weeks ago. i took two coordinating fabrics and spelled out "birthday girl" and then appliqued the letters to the shirt. once washed, the letters fray and look super cute!

teagan's latest blanket

i love this blanket because it has kind of a vintage-y look to it. it's made out of a super soft velvet/minky like material...hard to describe. orange and hot pink, beautiful fabrics, but a nightmare to work with! i love the way it turned out but i will most likely never work with this type of fabric again. i used ribbon for the trim of this blanket and i really like the look of that as well. so, here's a one of a kind, i guess :)

awaiting my 3rd little byrdies arrival...

i couldn't resist. i found the cutest flannel fabric with little birdies on it and i had to make something for my 3rd little byrdie! this is the same blanket as gavin's (two posts down), except that i used rick rack for the border of this one. these blankets measure approx. 38"x38" and are made of soft, cuddly flannel fabrics, perfect for the fall and winter! instead of doing her name and birthday, i just did her name and added a little bird embroidery to match the bird fabric on the other side.

these sets are $40 - $30 for the blanket and $10 for the burp cloth.

newborn set for little henry

this set consists of a burp cloth and two onesies. this little guy will by tiny when he's born so i did a newborn onesie and then a 0-3 month onesie that he can wear a little longer. his last name is byrd like ours and so i used a cute bird fabric for his set. this is one of my favorites!



nap blanket and pillow set

i made these for my daughter for kindergarten. she needed a little nap pillow and blanket and i thought it would be fun for her to pick out her own fabric. i also embroidered it so she didn't have her name labeled in big ol' black permanent marker!

bumble bees, newborn gift set - $35

this is the newest cutie pie set i've made. a friend of mine ordered it because she's throwing a baby shower for a friend of hers and the gender is unknown. they are doing a bumble bee theme so i came up with this cute little ensemble. i decided to go with gold and brown tones instead of the typical yellow and black.

this particular set (a burp cloth, onesie, and bib) is $35.
