Hi everyone!!!! I promised pictures of the diaper bag for my niece. This is it. I also made a sheet for the bassinet. It all made for a really cute set. I did expect he to have a bit more of a tummy since she only has 2 months to go but she just has a little pooch for now. Of course I personally know that can change in a very short time as she gets closer.
The flags were just appliques on and satin stitches around and for the handles.
I put elastic on the top of the pockets and eased it in at the bottom so there is some fullness there. The pockets are divided so there are four separate areas.
This is the diaper bag and sheet (and book) in the bassinet. I apologize for not having a better picture but I was taking them at the last minute. The bassinet has been used for the babies in the family since 1922. My grandfather was in WW1 and was injured. He had rehabilitation and part of that process was to make something. He made the bassinet. My aunt added the hood and has been used for over 30 babies in the family. It is a real special thing to all of us and now will be used for another one.
This blog is mostly about my passion. Making bags. Of course life is not all about making bags and sometimes the outside world enters the bag world.
About Me
- Kathy
- I am a wife, mom, grandma and great-grandma. I love doing many crafts. Mostly I just like to be creative and use my own ideas. I don't usually buy patterns and I use my own interpretation of techniques. I started this blog to have a place to put ideas that I have come up with while creating. Some are very original. Some are combinations of others that I have seen. I am into techniques and what I can do to make them work for me. Most of the things I do started somewhere and have been tweaked to the point that they no longer resemble where they originated. I just can't seem to leave things alone. I am a member/moderator of "Sewing Tote Bags and Purses" a group that does just that with fabric and passion.
