car seat cover

I made this car seat cover the other night from a tutorial I found online. It was so simple! You can find the tutorial here:

I love this car seat cover! It's probably my favorite thing I've made so far!

Remnant Fabric is Awesome!

So I found some fleece remnant fabric at Walmart for $1.09 and snatched it up! I was able to make two longies and two soakers out nof one remnant! For $1 that's a pretty good deal! Plus the fabric is so cute isn't it?

so I made my first pair of pants today! I was extremely intimidated but once I started them they were really easy! It's a Katrina pattern, you can find the pattern here:

first blog post...ever...

ok, so I have never had a blog before so this is all new to me. I decided to start this blog because I need motivation.
I am 6 1/2 months pregnant with our first baby. It's a BOY! We are naming him Tracy James and he is due September 15, 2010. I am over the moon excited and can't wait! My "nesting" has turned into a frenzied need to learn to sew and make everything for the baby homemade. We have decided to cloth diaper which is where the sewing thing started. It has now turned into much more than just sewing diapers.
I will be working on a few different projects this weekend: a car seat cover, a tote bag, and a crayon wrap for our nephew. All of which will be posted for all to see my wonky stitches and horrible techniques!
Well, until next time, buh-bye!
