If it's a boy...















The same pattern as the little ladies diapers below, just minus the ruffles.
And the headband won't do for a boy, so I've hand stitched this tie to the front of a top to complete the set..

It's wedding season




















My little sister just got engaged!
We had a perfect picnic in the park with the sun shining & lots of treats.
Now for the wedding...

If it's a girl...

I found the cutest ruffled diaper pattern while searching on etsy.. and although we're not sure what we're having I couldn't resist making this just incase we had a little lady. The cute fabric is from Spotlight, the diaper cover pattern is thanks to littlelizardking.blogspot.com, the booties pattern is fromhttp://meetmeatmikes.blogspot.com/ and the headband I made up so hope the sizing will work! Now to modify the patterns and make a set for a little man..

Nesting...




















I've finally finished up at work so have a month off (hopefully) before baby comes, to chill out, potter away and 'nest' at home.. although I seem to be busier than ever and as soon as one job is ticked off the list I've already added another!
One of the first jobs was to make some little mittens, a beanie and muslin wipes ready for when we head to the hospital. The knotted beanie pattern is thanks to www.poxcouture.etsy.com, the muslin wipes have been cut up into small pieces from a larger one and hemmed, and the mittens I made from my own pattern.. whether they work or not I'll find out!
