My latest obsession

It seems like someone has turned on my creativity switch and I'm so excited! With four kids and a husband who works long hours it's hard to get excited about much on a day to day basis. I am really proud of how my first few projects have turned out and I'm looking forward to creating more.

My latest obsession has been sewing. My mom just got me my own machine and I am in love. A friend of mine referred me to a few other blogs for some projects I wanted to do for a baby shower. It has turned into so much more than that now.

I started with a nursing cover that turned out really cute. (Not bad for my very first attempt!)
















I also made her some a hooded towel and pacifier clips.


I have several more gifts to make, but so far I'm mostly sticking with the nursing covers.

It's crazy to me that people are actually offering me money to create something for them too. I guess I am lucky enough to have lots of friends who are either expecting or just had a baby! I love the opportunity this has given me to flex my creativity muscles in a way that I haven't been doing for a while.

Please let me know if you are interested in purchasing any of my creations. They are all handmade in a smoke and pet free home. Pre-washed in infant safe detergent and ready for use.

A plain-panel cover will be $20 and an embellished one (similar to what's pictured above) will be $25. If you'd like a Reminder Pin to help you remember which side to start nursing from they are $5 when purchased separately, or $3 with a cover. Those will either be a rolled rosette out of a contrasting material, fashion button or a flower (your choice). The hooded towels will be $15 and I can make it in any color you'd like. (With or without the inside handles.) The pacifier clips are $5 a piece or $8 for a set of 2.

If you have a request for a color, let me know!

(Check here if you're more of a do-it-yourself kind of gal for the general instructions on the hooded towel, here for the pacifier clip project and here for the nursing covers.  I will be selling nursing cover kits in your choice of fabric for $15, binky clips for $2.50 and hooded towels for $13.)
