Simple Headband

I am about to be an Aunt... again! To a little girl! The first little girl since i started sewing {well, the first kid that wasn't mine since i started sewing...} and as you already know, i am super excited! SO of course i had to make some head wear from my beautiful little niece.

This headband was BEYOND simple! I just bought the flowered fabric from the trimmings section in Joann, added some elastic i already owned, sewed them together, and VOILE! I have a beautiful headband!

What you need:
Some sort of trimming
8" (for 3 month) 1/4" elastic
Needle and Thread

please excuse the hairy model... i happen to be the only girl in the house :)

I can hardly wait to see it on her {or to see her, for that matter!}

Baby Hammy Dress Update

So, i decided that the little dress needed a pair of bloomers because every little dress needs something to cover a diaper right? :) I used Made's Perfect Diaper Cover Tutorial. One of the easiest project i have ever done! Wow! It whipped right out and before i knew it i had the perfect companion to the dress. 

I also added a little pink boy because no girl can have too much pink OR too many bows. (yes, i just said that. Pre-boys i was the most anti-pink person ever! Now... ooooooo i can't wait!!)

Pinwheel Quilt

Wow. Crafting has been few and far between over the last little bit. A not sleeping baby and me exhausted equaled a lot of naps (for me)! So it took a while BUT...

I'm done! My first little baby girl quilt is finished! *and it may or may not have made me baby hungry for a little girl* maybe...just maybe... My sister-in-law is pregnant with a little girl after two boys. I was just through the moon excited for her so i knew i had to sew her something girl appropriate.

So pinwheels it was. I had triangles left over from a quilt i made for my little sister's wedding (posted here.) Perfect choice for pinwheels. I had quilted with pink and yellow alternating embroidery floss and i just love how it looks! The fabric came from Moda Layer Cakes--but i don't know the line.

Little girl stuff is definitely fun! Enjoy!
