Graco Snugride Car Seat New Cover

Last week I shared about my slight car seat cover nightmare. Although I spent WAAAAAY too much time messing with that nightmare, I'm finally able to say I'm pretty happy with my tweaks. The cover now fits fairly snug around the entire seat, I sewed the little "head" roll thing for when they are newborn, just need to take pictures of it, and I only have to sew the rain cover/canopy, but I'm just not ready to tackle that yet. It's at the top of my list, I'm hoping it will be a VERY long nap this afternoon?!

Previous Project: Dani Bags

This sewing gig all snowballed after seeing my friend Emily had made an Around the World quilt, from the Quilt in a Day series. I was amazed that she was able to create a quilt and I wanted to make one too! That morphed into a desire to create myself a purse I could use daily, that wouldn't cost a lot of money. From there, I started making these little wallets, I called them "barlettes" because they were very small and perfect for holding some cash and an id card/credit card (I was in college!) Really, being able to create something from nothing is so amazingly fulfilling for me.

The purses are always fun to create, but once I got pregnant I became interested in a new variety of projects. Baby quilts of course are always something I enjoy on working on, but baby booties--nothing beats some baby booties! Nursing covers, bibs, burp cloths, baby carriers, and moses basket liners soon followed.

I hope in the coming days to post examples of my work...
