Orginal Car Seat Cover

I finally got around to snapping a picture of the cute car seat cover I made for Emmy. We got the Lilah's seat installed yesterday and it's now just waiting for her to get here! Sorry for the blurry photo.

Lilah's Infant Car Seat Cover

I decided to make a new cover for the baby capsule along with new padding. It has 4 layers of foam encased in fleece underneath and the cover is made out of a canvas material in aqua with purple, pink, white, and green poky dots. I also was able to get on a chest plate clip to up the safety of the car seat. For those of you who have not seen these clips the keep the straps from slipping off the baby's shoulders and in a car accident this could mean the difference between the baby being able to project out of the car seat or not. Pretty important feature if you ask me!

Newborn Fairy Costume

Emmy's first birthday party is coming up and Lilah will be around 3-4 weeks old and I wanted to include her in the fairy theme and made this cute tutu and paired it with a matching onesie.

I still have the wings to make and I'm undecided on how I'll do them. I'm leaning towards super tiny delicate soft wings attached to the back so when she is laying on them they will not feel uncomfortable at all. I also kept the tutu free in the back so it's comfy to lay on and it's made with elastic for easy removal without taking off the whole outfit.

Oh So Soft T-shirt Newborn Gown!

This was my trial run at making a newborn gown out of old T-Shirts. Both shirts I cut up to make this were super worn in and soft. The pattern calls for some elastic on the bottom to keep it from riding up, but I haven't put that in yet. I want to wait and see how it fits before I decide to do that. I got the idea from here.

I have some Tori Amos concert T-shirts that I have never worn so I think I will be cutting them up and making some fun tiny tees for the girls out of them. I also wanna go digging in some thrift stores and find some gems to reconstruct into fun kid clothes!

It's got ears!

Here's my first attempt at making a hooded jacket with ears with matching footed pants. It's size medium. I think it turned out cuter than I thought it would. Depending on how it fits her this coming winter I'll make another one in a more delicate soft print.

Care Bear Winter Suit

I wanted to create a separate space to post some of the fun things I get to do for the girls. I have no idea how much I will get to post here since I keep up the baby blog plus take care of 11 month old and in 2-3 weeks a newborn plus a husband and household. Busy bee :)

Currently I'm working on making a winter jacket and footed pant set for Lilah that has little bear ears on the hood and the material is lime green with Care Bears. I bought the material to make blankets with, but thought I'd give this pattern a go and if it turns out really nice I'll make another one in a much cuter material. I'll post pic's as soon as I get it completed!
