Homemade Baby Gifts
I'm some other Lucky Aunt!
Two Baby Girls had been born into our family this month, Camila Andrea and Hadalee Jo.
Both toddlers are healthful and exquisite.
I made both of them the identical presents and notion I'd proportion how clean all of it turned into to make.
The first issue I made become these Hooded Bath Towels. Someone made them for my boys once they had been toddlers and we nevertheless use them. So I knew they could be an amazing, practical present to give.
The First factor you'll need is one Bath Towel and one Hand Towel.
Cut the hand towel in 1/2, this will be your hood.
(I definitely determined that the bath towel didn't fee too much greater then the hand towel, so I simply traced and cut out a hand towel onto the bath towel, Plus then I had extra towel to use for the burp clothes I will be showing you next.
Fold the Hand towel in 1/2, right aspect in, Then stitch down the uncooked part aspect.
Next you may make a cuff by folding over the other side of the towel. Pin and stitch. This is the element that frames the face. The hood is now whole.
Ok, this is where it gets a little problematic.
You're going to stitch the hood onto the tub towel.
Fold the Bath Towel in 1/2 to locate the middle. Next discover the center of your hood, Lay the hood onto the bath towel, matching the centers together. Pin into area.
Then Sew together. (ensure your seem may be inside the internal of your hooded towel).
You now have a Hooded Towel. You may also then add some patches, or a name on that again, however I'm a newbie sewer so I just saved it easy.
The next thing I made become a few burp garments.
For this undertaking you may want a towel and a few coordinating fabric.
(sorry for the blurry picture)
Lay the cloth over the towel right facets OUT. I then took a burp material I already had to use as a manual. Pin all layers together after which cut out. If you do not have already got a burp cloth to hint, I could endorse just reducing out a rectangle.
Then stitch round the edge leaving about a 1/four inch.
Like I stated, I'm a beginner sewer so I simply did a simple stitch, I think after a few washing it's going to have a lovely frayed appearance. For a more advanced sewer you can use a zigzag stitch or use a serger. I parent it is a burp material so it is made to get thrown up on, consequently it does not must be ideal.
I then boxed it all together with some baby wash and this homemade card I blogged about here.
It become all superb fun and easy to make.
Hope the little sweethearts like them.
