Craft To-Do List
I've been tackling my "Crafting for Baby" to-do list. I'm almost finished with all my projects!
DONE:
Painted onesies and shirts. I decorated added just his name to the blue/brown star onesie my cousin gave me. I freehand painted the elephant to match the shoes. The turtle one, I only added "Lil Bro". Alison's shirt, you can't tell but the lettering is pinstriped turq./lime/yellow with sparkles on top.
Baby Burp Rags, I just took my crappy old Gerber diapers that I've always used for burp rags and FINALLY updated them by adding cute fabric. I made them very quickly so they aren't perfect. The Mario and cars fabric is from my grandma's stash, the big pig fabric is something I bought before Alison was born (intending to make her something) and the Monster fabric is leftover from an outfit I made Xan before he was born (was supposed to be a 0-3 mo. but the pattern was WAY off so it fit him at 3 yrs).
TO-DO:
- Xander's Big Brother shirt- I'm still working on ideas cause it's plain lime green and I don't want to just write "Big Brother"... too boring.
- Fix a cute Carter's outfit- They accidentally printed the size tag on both sides of the back fabric (at neckline) so it looks funny. I plan to paint a bunch of bananas over the outside one. The outfit has monkeys on it, so it's fitting.
- Boppy cover- I found the flannel dino fabric from a dress I made Alison when she was 4. I'll probably make one with that.
- Robot baby blanket
- Xan's Robot duvet quilt
- My duvet cover made with coordinating top sheets
- Sew a sling
MAYBE:
- Buy some cute flannel fabric and make more burp rags and also diaper liners and wipes.
- Another boppy cover or two with matching blankets.
- Paint more baby shirts- for now, I'm getting tired of the painting... pinstripes take forever!
- Sew a Romper
- Sew some baby shoes with cute pattern I found
