Baby Boy!

As you may notice, I am having a boy..soon. Therefore, I bought 4 fabric patterns from Heather Bailey and went to work! of course in the meantime of all these projects, my machine went caput and had to borrow a friends (thank you Julia!!).
These projects are feasible, just a little time consuming..on some (like the bumper)
Baby blue, lime green, and yellow are the colors I chose, since the walls in the room were already yellow..so the fabrics are mostly blue and green, with some yellow in 2 of them.
I bought 2 yards of 2 of the fabrics, and 1 yard of the other 2 and was able to make all this! I also used 2 sets of white sheets :) The minky fabric I bought about 1 yard and have some left over.. I even have some left over of the Heather Bailey fabric!
If you want instructions on any of these.. email me and I will be glad to help you out on your project!

Onsie Fun


This is a 2 day project; dye the first day, decorate the second day!

Supplies:
Onsies or shirt
Dye
Large bowl or sink
Salt
Felt or fabric
Scissors
Liquid Stitch or Sewing Machine

I just followed the instruction on the dye package. I used velvet black, flamingo pink and purple. After I dyed them I washed them to make sure the didn't bleed after I applied my applique. I just let them air dry.

Next I cut all my applique's. Place a piece of wax paper inside the shirt. Then using the liquid stitch glue on your felt or fabric. Place something heavy on-top of the design to apply pressure. Let dry for 24 hours. I have never used liquid stitch so I am not sure how well it will hold up. If you are worried about it just sew it on instead.

Note: I like the uneven color created by dying the shirts. If you don't you may have to dye your onesies twice or leave them in longer.

For the ruffled onesie I used this tutorial:
