More Baby Gifts

I made a couple more sets of the wipes and pacifier holders for gifts.  The dino set I'm selling to Chris' cousin.  She spotted the set within my pictures on Facebook and asked if she can purchase a set for a baby shower she's attending next weekend.  Since I was going to bust everything out for the baby shower I'm going to in a couple of weeks, it wasn't a bit deal to make 2 sets at once.

Since you can't really see the super cute monkey fabric, here's the back.

One more sleep and my Punkie comes home!  I'm missing her a LOT.

Enjoy your day!

Baby Gifts

Once again I've been playing with my embroidery arm of my sewing machine.  This time I made a couple of baby shower gifts.  One of my many cousins is expecting her first and her shower is at the end of the month.  I wanted to make her a little something.  I found these great gift ideas on DigiStitches.

Baby Wipes holder and Paci Pod

The baby wipe holder holds one of those 40 count "travel" packages of baby wipes.  The Paci Pod seems to hold 2-3 extra pacifiers and can be clipped to the diaper bag or purse for easy access to the extras.

See the travel pack in there?

I only found one lone pacifier in the house from Amelia's baby days but you get the picture.

I hope the Mom to Be will like my gifts.  I bought her a few other little things to add to my gift.  With me not working right now, money is a bit tight.  She better appreciate my thoughtfulness.  LOL!

The projects are REALLY easy to do and the sewing machine does all the work for you.  Even the stippling!  I wish I could just throw a quilt on my machine and have it do all the stippling for me.  Like magic!  So if you have an embroidery arm attachment for your sewing machine and need some quick baby gifts, I highly recommend these.

Sorry my blog has been so quiet the last week or so.  Amelia hasn't been giving me much free time to sew.  We are also gearing up for her birthday party next month and have been gathering supplies to make a favor for all her little guests.  I'll show you what we (I) came up with once we get things together.  I've also been working on getting my Postage Stamp blocks together.  It's high time that came off my list.  I have 10 more to go.  I'm planning on finishing those today.

It's a hot one out there today.  Stay cool wherever you are!
Enjoy your day!

Embroidery Machine Fun

I made another personalized pillow for a gift.  This one too is headed to TX.  It's for my BFF's neighbor's oldest.  Her sister has one too.  Her room is bubblegum pink and chocolate brown.  I think this one fits the bill, don't you?

I also had some fun trying out a new "In the Hoop" project from Digistitches.  They always have some cute projects but I never buy all the ones I really like.  This one caught my eye and I had to get them both.  A little work is needed on my part with better placement of the zipper but overall, I like them.  These are both for Amelia.  She'll find something to stick in them.  I just need to add a key ring or something to them for her.

Enjoy your day!
