I've been desperately trying to keep busy while anxiously awaiting Sebastian's arrival. Here are some projects I've done lately.
Hooded Towels.
This is something I've wanted to do for a while now, mostly to cut back on laundry. All our other towels are white and we couldn't keep track of whose was whose. It was one of the easiest sewing project EVER. It took longer to switch out my thread than it did to sew these. Since I used hand towels instead of a washcloths they're huge, but now the boys have plenty of room to grow into them...yeah, grow into their towels. Whatever. They love them. They wear them around the house pretending to be wizards in cloaks.
I'm awesome, but no, I didn't make the blanket, or the chair. Just the pillow. Now the chair is perfect.
Car Seat Cover
I've always wanted one of these but didn't think they were worth $30-$40. I have a friend who felt the same way so one night we got together and tackled the idea. I'm super happy with how it turned out and my cost.....10 bucks! Go me.
P.S. It's not crooked, it just needs to be ironed again since I
washed it.
This is a weird shot, but I wanted to show the underside.
Covered Baskets
This was the first project I did. I also feel like covered baskets are overpriced so when I saw these four baskets for $10 at IKEA, I bought them with the idea to cover them myself. Though each one is different and not even close to perfect, it got me the look I wanted and for less than half the cost. Go me, again.
