Baby Boom

It's official. Just about every female I know is pregnant. Ok, not quite - but pretty darn close. Baby bellies are popping out everywhere and it's not just baby on my brain. Believe me, I've been there and done that 4 times!

Though, it is fun for me to have the chance to make fresh baby things! A friend of mine will be having a baby any day now - here is her bedding that I just finished.



The baby boy's room is a vintage modern style with clean lines and prints paired with bold vintage inspired artwork on the walls. So fresh and fun!


I used just one panel of these Curtains from IKEA for the bumper pad and ties.



Instead of one long bumper, there are 4 pieces (2 long sides, 2 short) to make washing easier. You only have to wash the side that gets dirty - what mom wouldn't love less newborn baby laundry?!


and fabric by Etsuko Furuya: Echino Chelsea in GREY Deer Forest for the blanket.



She wanted just a blanket made instead of a quilt - but I did some different quilting to add interest to the fabric as well as hold the layers together. I used a large and small circles as templates and stitched them in a random pattern across the entire blanket. It's kind of hard to see in the picture, but it turned out pretty nice.



And here's my baby posing for a picture.

Congrats to all of the soon to be mommies! Babies are so much....fun!

Little Jock



I just finished a custom order for a set of 5 onesies for a little boys' baby shower. Baby Ozzy.



It is a sports themed baby shower, so the woman wanted 4 onesies with various sports represented.



My favorites are the golf & football onesies.



While making them, I kept showing them to my husband (the sports connoisseur) to see if everything looked right. He approved.

OOAK

Am I the only person in the world who didn't know what this Acronym stands for? Did I miss the memo or something? I would occasionally see this descpiption listed with items for sale on Etsy and wonder, "what the...? Did they misspell Oak? I know this thing isn't made of any type of wood!"

I looked it up. Now I know. Don't you want to know? You're going to look it up right now, aren't you?

Well, here are things that fit the descpription OOAK:

A custom Boutique Skirt Chef Set with the name - "Eloise"



This is the set requested by the Cut Sew Repeat Chef Set Winner, Rachel! Her boys are going to look so cool cooking in these!



40 Fabric Flower Brooches for a woman in Denmark for her wedding in Australia!



Wouldn't you love to get these as a wedding favor instead of some random trinket with the bride and groom's initials on it?



Okay, I give it up. It means "One Of A Kind". You learn something new everyday!
