Recent craft projects...

So i havent actually been all that busy crafting, ive just been really slack blogging, therefore, lots of craftyness to brag about...

First pic is some very fancy cloth bum wipes, made simply to est out the decorative stitches on my sewing machine. Second pic is a wrap for babywearing, i am wanting a proper woven wrap but in the meantime i plan on getting used to wrapping with this homemade one, just bought 4m of indian cotton from Spotlight, cut it in half so its 60cm wide, then hemmed all the way around. Third pic is a tether blankie for River, the otherside is minky to it's nice and cuddly, there's snaps on each corner to attatch all is things to and clip on the pram, it has proved very handy.

 

An owl for Ollie...

A crocheted owl beanie for a good friends gorgeous little man, for his second birthday. i love this so much i'll be making one for River too!

Some of River's new nappies, there's quite a few more still in the works. The brown minky and teal paisely one was made from fabric gifted from Mumma Ebz, to match a bandana bib I bought from her. i so love this fabric, i didn't want to butcher it too much, but make a feature of it, im very happy with this nappy, but it wont fit him for as long as the other ones i've made as i made the front straight rather than winged.

 Tie dyed front panel, purple minky bum with peace sign applique and rainbow snaps, snap in hemp trifold booster topped with fleece.

 I made two of these gorgeous little fluffy bum nappies, one for River and one for River's best mate and belly buddy, Logie Bear. Another collaboration with Mumma Ebz to match bibs. i couldn't find any black minky so i ended up using faux fur, and i'm so glad! they look so cute!

For River's 1st birthday, i bought him a book from Honeybee Toys called 'Pip the Gnome'. i decided to crochet the gnome to go with the story. It was a work in progress and took a few weeks. i made it up as i went along, so he's not perfect, but River loves him and has had him in his cot every night since his birthday.

The completed 'Pip the Gnome' with the book.

Enough for now, Peace out xx
