Save for Later

I wanted to share a few things I made for my niece as baby shower gifts. I really love that even though I am having a boy, I still get to play with girly, pink stuff too.

I hadn’t made these before so I picked up the wrong burp cloths but I still think they will serve their purpose. Embellished with some fun material, they will make even the messiest messes not so bad.

This project was more for my sister than my niece. It’s a nursing cover. I have made this before and loved choosing the fabrics for it – I really like the combination.

I was really excited about completing this one. I have never completed a quilt in my entire life. I have another one in pieces that I doubt I’ll ever put together. But this one was the right size and fun to work on. We found the robot material online so I ordered a yard. The other materials I found at Joann’s. I had other plans for the robot material but felt it was too busy for those ideas and then I saw this post on Think Liz. I thought, hey, why not a small quilt? For my first attempt I have to say it was fairly easy. The only part that gave me problems was the binding but it won’t keep me from making more….well at least 2 more. Not sure after that. Haha! I do still have some of the robot material left and plan on making a couple more things with it.

Now that these are wrapped up, I can start planning what projects I’ll do for my little man. I have a few months left!
