Sew Happy!

My last post was so heavy, I decided I'd switch to something light, and low key.  So, being sick this week provided an opportunity to do a little sewing.  Nothing fancy (because I can't make anything fancy :) but still fun.

Felt shamrocks in honor of St. Patrick's Day!

This weekend we were at my friend's house and she had these wonderful neck warmers (rice-filled fabric sleeves that you microwave for a minute and place them wherever you want heat).  Autumn fell in love with them so I made her one of her own, in her choice of Winnie the Pooh fabric.

A few months ago I made Autumn some baby doll diapers from flannel and she loved them.  She's been begging me to make more and I finally got around to it.  Here's a 'Cow Jumping Over the Moon' print diaper with two 'wipes.'   She was deliriously happy.  It's the little things in life, ya know?!

Do you have a pattern for the doll diapers? I would LOVE a copy!

The link below has a printable pattern for the diapers. It's from Skip to My Lou and she has a ton of adorable things.

Josie still plays with the diapers you made for her, too. I think she will love seeing Autumn again. I wish I could sew, but it is kind of hard with no machine...:( maybe someday. I will just live vicariously through you until then!:)
