I co-hosted a baby shower last weekend for a scrapbooking friend. She's having a little girl, but wanted to go in a more gender neutral direction. Our theme was elephants, so I put together a little gift basket to go with the theme. I made some burp cloths out of prefold diapers. I just sewed a length of fabric down the middle of the diaper. I received some of these as gifts when Sophie was a newborn and I loved them. Great for spills and spit ups.
I also tried my hand at applique for the first time. That's an elephant in case you could tell I got the pattern from www.littlebirdiesecrets.com and then shrunk it to fit a size 3 month onesie. I was pretty happy with how it turned out. Hopefully it will hold up well.
The applique shirt came out so cute!!! You did a really really good job! Why can't I have a baby when you're around me!?
