I've been crafty!!

So several months ago, my sister-in-law Shonda wanted some help with a baby gift for her cousin/my cousin-in-law. We decided to go in on it together, which I was grateful because I hadn't gotten her a gift yet. Shonda showed me the directions for how to make cutsie, decorated burb cloths. The result was these:




So easy!!! I became obsessed with them for a while, making several for friends and a lot for Shonda when Cameron was born. I enjoyed getting to pull out my sewing machine and actually using it! That is something I don't get to do very often.

These are so great because they use the really padded cloth diapers so moms' shoulders can be better protected from baby spit up, and they look cute!

I'm excited about them. Once we find out what gender of baby we are having I'm going to start making some for me too!! :)

Those are SO cute. A couple people here made me some similar to that when they heard we were moving here with a newborn (isn't that sweet?!). They don't have diapers in the inside though, it's like some sort of fur? Diapers would be cool. Knowing your sewing skills, I'm sure those are awesome!

I still love them! As long as baby is going to spit up...do it in style! Thanks again...what a talent you have!
