Taggy blanket

I think i must be nesting. Made a taggy blanket out of leftover fabric.
Dalmation minky one side


Skulls flanellette print on the other side.





Today i went to Spotlight and bought more blankey fabric. Baby is due in Summer i wonder if the blanket is going to be too warm. Also bought Disney Cars and sea creature print cotton fabric to make liam's bedsheet and doona cover. Hope that's going to turn out ok because it'll be my first sewing bedsheet and doona cover.

Newborn nappies



Oh they are soooo cute just because they are so tiny!! I have forgotten how small newborn used to be. i've finally finished 2 fitted in size S (with constant interuption from my 2 cheeky monkeys). I can't resist buying 1 pocket nappy rom Julie the creator of Cloth for Comfort when i was at Hawthorn craft market last sunday. The color is just so vibrant and unisex. Cant have enough of infant nappies now.



Just want to show how small they are i've put a mouse next to the nappies for comparison.



The one in the centre i serged the edges with overcast stitch on my sewing machine. It actually doesnt look too bad. Of course it doesnt have the professional stitches like what an overlocker can do but all my inserts were sewn this way and i have no problem with stitches coming off after washes so i thought i'll give it a go.

It took me few weeks to finally finished clearing the vege patch that looked more like a bush. I am not kidding the grass has grown as high as my knee. Too bad i didn't get around to taking picture of it. Now i've got new seedling planted. Here they are:

Roma tomato

yellow tomato

zucchini (Liam just pull it out!)

mix capsicum/chilli


i've also got some existing herbs that survive the winter:

curly parsley

italian parsley

spring onion
Now i cant wait for the vege to bear fruits!
