Baby Quilt

I have been busy preparing for the arrival of our newest addition! We are due to have a baby girl at the end of September!! When looking to decorate her room I couldn't find the "perfect" bedding set, so I took a leap of faith and decided to try to make my own. I really wanted a quilt that had a "vintage" feel to it and would be "girly" without being over powering with pink. Here are a couple quick photos I snapped on my phone. I will add some more (higher quality) photos when I have the crib in the room for staging :)

Back is green flannel - very cozy!

Christmas PJ's

I really wanted to make Cole Christmas PJ's. I had visions of adorable little flannel PJ's with a button up top. . . .When I saw that Joann's would have flannel on sale for Black Friday, I decided to brave the lines and get some to make my Christmas PJ dreams come true. It took me a little longer to find the exact patttern I wanted to use, but I finally ended up with Simplicity 3584. The pattern wasn't as tough as I thought it would be, although I was scared of the collar! Overall I would say that my first attempt at apparel went pretty well!

Wet Bag

A while back I picked up a remnant piece of Babyville PUL fabric from Joanns. The fabric has an adorable owl pattern and I knew I could find something to use it for. I finally decided to make a wet bag for Cole's wet clothes/ towel after swim lessons.

It was super easy to make and works great. I think next time I might add a loop handle and top stitch around the whole bag, just for a more finished look. . .
