Itty Bitty Diapers! So Cute!! And a Give Away!!

Comments Closed! I will pick 2 winners later today and post!!

Sunday my SIL and her family welcomed baby Mason into the world! He was born weighing about 6 lbs 9 oz and 18"! Reminds me of when Tristan was just a bitty babe!

I would love to convert her over to cloth, so I am sending her a few diapers to hopefully sway her! The cutest, oh so tiny!! They may be a little too small for him, so I think I will make up a few smaller NB and some regular ones too.

These are all preemie diapers that I made this week. Aren't they the cutest? Working on customizing some, hope to have it perfected very soon. Three of the tiniest little diapers all with Babyville Boutique pul fabric!! The monster one even has the little tag and matching engraved snaps. I just love sewing these up!

Owl Diaper-Did this one first, but decided after it was completed I really don't like to topstitch the legs.

Monster Diaper-Turned and topstitched with rolled in pul at the legs.

Monkey Diaper-My favorite! Customized this one a little, but I will tell you more when the Babyville site goes live!

Oh and did you know my local Joann's has started getting in the Babyville Boutique line. They had it all in the back when I stopped by the other day, but I stopped by the cutting counter to ask about it. One of my favorite ladies was working and she said that she did remember seeing it and went back to search for the monkeys pul I had requested. She reappeared in just a minute or two with a bolt of monkeys!! Oh so cute, still in it's plastic wrapping!! I got the very first cut!!

So most stores will be putting the line up in the next week or so, I think Sept. 18 is the official date.

But wouldn't it be nice if you could have some before then???

Leave me a comment below telling me why you need some Babyville Boutique monkey pul and I will select 2 winners at random to each receive a diaper cut(20x20) of this sweet material! I will keep comments open until midnight this Sunday, Sept 11. Please make sure when you post to include your email address so I will not have a problem getting a hold of you if you win!

Good Luck and Happy Sewing!!

My 1st Give a Way!!

In honor of my 50th post and my baby(not Tristan) my 1st baby turning 17 tomorrow, I am in the mood to give something away. So let's see. I know! I LOVE scrappy sewing, it is one of my favorite things to do. Whether I am using hard to find fabrics, little scraps left over from other projects or recycled odds and ends from tee shirts and such. My beanie PDF provides a really fun project that even the least experienced seamstress will love to sew. I think it takes me about 5 minutes now from cut to finish! This is probably my favorite pattern for my kids and has gotten the most use. My now 17 yr old loves to wear them, my daughter has wore them in her tween period and Noah my 7 yr old almost always has a beanie on his head. Tristan has a few already too, I guess they are staples of our wardrobe around here!

I will email 3 lucky winners a copy of my Scrappy Beanie PDF pattern and send them a few knit scraps to make a beanie with in the mail! Just leave a comment telling me who you would sew a beanie for(can be preemie up to an adult!) and what kind of beanie that person would like. You could say things like character fabrics, superheroes,bugs, stripes, dots, solids, cars, you name it and I will see if I can find a little something something in the stash! And PLEASE leave your email for me, so I can contact the winner. It's so sad when you win and no one can get a hold of you!!

I will leave the comments open until midnight, Sunday March 13,2011, EST of course! Winners will be posted on Monday, March 14, 2011!

Now let me hear who needs a beanie!!
