I had a chance to escape great big Peterborough for a couple of days and I finally got down to some serious crafting. My little hideaway has one of the most handsome babies I know – so I wanted to make him a couple things to spit upon (not “up on” – I mean upon, this is a classy young gentleman here).
I pumped out a couple of baby sacks this afternoon. Apparently they’re the latest in cool infant sleepwear. Maybe not the latest, just the newest child related thing I know about. Anyway, I digress.
The first sack was a simple blue and brown mix. It was meant to be all blue, but I did a terrible cut the first time around and ran out of fabric. The zipper doesn’t look terribly fantastic – but this little man can’t use words to hurt my soul quite yet.
The second sleep bag has a wee bit more geeky style. You see, this baby is the son of an alpha nerd (possibly, two alpha nerds – but I’m not trying to offend friends here). I’ve had some vintage Star Wars sheets kicking around for a while, being saved for a project just like this. Without further ado – here is the most geekish sleep sack in town.
The final baby related craft for today was a few little pee tents. I’m not going to bother to discuss the finer points of pee tents – but basically it saves you from getting a face full of pee when you’re changing your son’s diaper.
By the by, for all you squeamish readers, this tent is fresh as can be. I promise – totally unused at the time of picture.
