a few baby gifts!

Our lovely Sunday school class is full of pregnant ladies!! So so fun!! We have been having a few diaper and wipes showers lately so I have been busy making a few items for each little bundle of joy!!
First combo..The baseball mitt applique is from Applique Cafe and I merged the name in using the Cleopatra font from 8 Claws and a Paw. The applique B on the bib is from Planet Applique. It is a baseball font package!! ALL BOY!!
 This funky little combo turned out pretty cute for a sweet little sister!! The flower applique comes from SWAK embroidery and I merged in the name using the Jelly Bean font from Etsy. The applique lower case b on the bib is done using the Anna Kate font from Applique Momma.
 Little ladybug combo...the ladybug applique is from SWAK and I merged in the name using the Grin and Giggles font from Applique Frenzy. The L on the bib is from 8 Claws and a Paw..I think the Ladybug font...
 And lastly...a sweet little combo...the raggy cross applique is from Applique Cafe and I merged in the name using the font Love Letters from Jolson's Designs. The Jesus Loves Me is an embroidery design from Embroidery Online. com
Love making some sweet baby gifts!! And for those of you that have been asking I get the bibs from ToysRus/BabiesRus in a 10 pack. I got the burp clothes from Target they are Gerber 6 ply..very thick! I usually get Carters onesies but I couldn't find any blank white 3 months so I picked up a pack of Gerber. They worked out great but they are not as thick as Carters.

baby girl gift

Actually made this gift a while back but haven't been able to post it as it was a baby gift for a sorority sister of mine. Her best friend contacted me and asked me to make this onesie. She wanted me to make it just like a mutual friend of ours made...give a shout out to Jessica from www.lovefromtexas.com

The anchor applique is from Applique Cafe and I honestly have no idea what font I used to make her name!
I love love how they turned out!!

Our sorority is DG so these were "legacy" clothes so to speak. Hoping that Candice and Natasha loved them as much as I did!!

a baby gift!

One of my best friends from college had a baby girl in January. I have finally been able to sew around here again so I threw together a few cute things for baby Tenley! This gift actually started with the cute lil smocked bubble from Remember Ngyugen and I took it from there! I had a little fun with being all matchy matchy :)

and a few more things for miss emery!

So, I have been able to make a few more things for Emery! This little blanket I got from Babytime for like 12 dollars!! There is NO way I could have made this blanket for that price! So soft and sweet! Thought it just had to have her name on it!
A few more burp cloths! I now have 5 for her but would like to make a few more! I am pretty sure you can't have enough of these things!!! Used the heat and bond on the ribbon this time and it turned out so much better!

Here are a few little newborn onesies I picked up at Walmart for $2 bucks a piece! Added a little name or initial and wala you have a super cute little onesie!

Now...to get started on some fall things for both my kids!!! I think that is going to have to wait until after Miss Emery gets here and we all get adjusted! Only 6 more days until baby girl arrives....well, that is unless she decides to come earlier!

A few more things for baby girl..

I can't stop making things for baby girl! It is just so FUN to make girly things!!!
Wanted some sweet bloomers with her name for pictures!

I only had 2 burp cloths so I made some frilly girly ones for Miss Emery! Got to get some more burps so I can make her a few more!!

This was my first attempt putting ribbon on the bottom of the burp cloths. I have to say I didn't do that great of a job sewing in a straight line. I think I am going to try heat and bond next time. What do you other fellow sewers do to make the ribbon look so good on the bottom???
