More Shirts for Christmas

More of the same.  

I think applique is my favorite thing to sew right now.

Baby Shower Gift: Reusable Wipes

I recently went to a baby shower for a friend who is interested in using disposable diapers and reusable wipes.  I had never really heard of reusable wipes before (makes sense, though... people had to clean baby bottoms before Pampers ever thought about it, right?), but they were on her registry and looked pretty simple to make, so I thought I'd give it a try.  

I cut pre-washed, unbleached flannel in to 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" squares with a rotary cutter, serged around the edges and called it a day.  Well, I guess I made a little case for the wipes and appliquéd a couple of onesies, then called it a day. :) 

Best wishes, Deanna and Aidan!

From Me, To You

Lately, I've been playing around with Christmas trees as a design element in my holiday sewing projects.  I thought you might like to have some fun with trees, too!  So, in the spirit of the season, I've made my tree templates available to download.

P.S.  This is my first time to make a PDF, so it's kind of an experiment.  Please let me know if you have problems downloading or printing the pattern.
