Feeding infants takes a toll on the ‘ole wardrobe.
For the first 8 months of her life, Songbird was a projectile vomit-er. Poor kid wore a bib during all her waking hours, which sometimes saved her outfits, but rarely saved mine.
Maybe if I’d sewn these Better Burp Cloths back then, I would have done a lot less laundry. While it’s too late for me, if you’re in the spit-up phase, maybe I can save you from the same fate—head over to Project Nursery for the full tutorial!
Does your child have a “lovey”? Wouldn’t it be extra sweet if you made it for them? A great DIY baby shower or first birthday idea up on Project Nursery‘s blog tonight – written by yours truly, of course. :)
Welcome to March everyone! Easter is just a few weeks away – what a great excuse to sew a few handmade bows. Check out my Project Nursery post on how to turn a thrifted men’s necktie into an adorable clip-on bow for boys’ shirts or girls’ hair. Bug will be definitely be rockin’ a handmade bowtie this Easter!
How it is that I’m still writing for Project Nursery 2 years strong is kind of a mystery. My kids are 7 & 3 (almost 4) and totally out of the nursery/toddler/baby phase. But, somehow I manage monthly to find DIY ideas that the infant-mom-type might find interesting to read.
Best part is that I get to stalk convince my friends and neighbors to let me borrow their adorable muffins for photoshoots!
This month I’m sharing a beginner-level sewing tutorial on how to make one of these super cute bandana-style drool bibs. I’ve even included a free pattern! Seriously, where were these adorable things when my kids were spit-up royalty? Think Bug would sport one in place of a winter scarf?!
Spoiler Alert – if we’re friends in real life and you have a baby, you will be getting one (or 3) of these for Christmas! ;)
