Pretty Pure Infiniti Diaper Pattern

Okay, so some mamas at diaper divas were talking about a pattern that they couldn't find anymore. I was intrigued! Thankfully after some investigating another mama found some info and contacted the pattern's designer. One email later, and a little paypal and I had the pdf in my inbox!! Love the internet!

Really cool pattern! It consists of just one layer of pul and then 2 layers of a wicking material, I used suedecloth. You sew in your soaker between the layers of suedecloth, I used 2 layers of bamboo fleece and 4 or 5 of cotton terry cloth. The foe binds the entire diaper and on the inside acts as a gusset for the inner layer. The pattern calls for a snap on the front of the soaker, but I decided to sew mine in. I love the concept and think I will be making more of these soon!

The embroidery is from urban threads and it stitched out beautifully. I can't wait to start another diaper, but for now I must be a chef and cook some dinner for the kids. I can't believe they want to eat again!

Happy sewing!!

Ankle Biter Pants and a Tee!

Every once and a while I get the urge to browse the PDF's on etsy. I don't usually buy too many, well except diaper patterns! The other day I came across the ankle biter PDF by Georgia Leigh Designs. Yes, I probably have a pants pattern traced out around here somewhere, but her pictures were just so cute I couldn't resist. I'm glad I didn't. Super cute pattern and fit Tristan very nicely.

I made him the 9 months size because he is a little shorty and they fit him just right! I decided to use my favorite flannel from Nancy Wolff and even added a tee to match. The tee is the signs tee from an older ottobre issue. Here is the link in case you want a looksie at the pattern!

Snap It Up Baby Sack Gown Pattern

Finally My Pattern!

It has taken me about a year, but finally I have my "Snap It Up Sack Gown" in PDF form and ready to go! The first 20 flew out of my etsy shop this past week and I hope everyone who purchased one is having fun sewing!

The pattern includes the choice of vneck or roundneck, long sleeves or no sleeves and you can choose to mix and match fabrics to your hearts desire!! I LOVE mixing it up and don't think I have made a plain one yet!! If you aren't into sewing, well I still offer them in my zootzbaby shop. I have a whale one and a surfing one up in the shop right now. I should be adding more in the next month or so.

And while we are talking shop, I haven't said this, but if you ever see something on the blog that you would just love for me to sew up for your baby boy, please don't hesitate to contact me through one of my etsy shops. I love custom orders and enjoy working one on one with mommas!

Here are the 2 that are in my shop now:

And here are samples of ones that I have done in the past! You really can sew your own sack gown. They aren't difficult and once you get the hang of it, it sews up pretty fast!!

And there isn't a whole lot of things cuter than a newly bathed newborn in a sack gown and beanie!!
