My First Diaper Cover!!
A few months ago I bought this pattern online to make diaper covers. I was going to make some right away but then decided to wait and see whether it was a girl or a boy seeing as how I love girly fabrics and would love to have girly diapers... although I should try and remember that I made need to use these for a boy one day so I suppose I should make some that are a bit more gender neutral than this one...hmm...
anyhow, I made my first one this weekend... It was a bit of a struggle getting used to the fold over elastic around the edges and in the end I don't think I pulled it quite enough while stitching, but the first one never works out just right, now does it?
My sister Jes made me this adorable little elephant for Christmas last year... little did she know I'd be having a baby this year... isn't he the cutest little model? He actually models all of my handmade baby stuff, yes, it is true, embarrassing I know!
Like my new label tags? Got those made by this gal... love them!
isn't it just sooo cute? I can't wait to make another one... I just washed this one to see if the elastic would shrink at all, it did a little but not enough to make a huge difference, so I think on my next one I need to make the leg areas a little bit tighter.
Yay, I love it!! I love making baby clothes, they're just so small and cute!!

SOOOOOO CUTE! It's adorable, and you did such a great job. I love the print with the brown! I bet you'll find that it still works, even with the loose legs. I can't wait to see all the other fun prints!
how cute..and congratulations.
Oh my goodness that is adorable!! Are you selling these on your website now? I never did meet up with you to buy those earings...guess i'll have to see what inventory you have for sale these days.
And congrats again on your pregnancy! Motherhood is the best thing in the world. Honestly.
