go-to baby shower gifts
Forgive me for the light posting this week - I've been sewing like crazy for a quadrouple(!) baby shower tomorrow night. I'm one of the lucky four expecting mamas, but I wanted to do something special for the other three ladies. I don't think any of them read my blog, so hopefully this will be safe to post. :) All three of them are expecting boys, so I had a chance to use some of my favorite Riley Blake Wheels fabric.
Here's a list of my go-to gifts for baby showers, depending on what I feel like making:
- Burp cloths
- An appliqued onesie - like in the onesie pictured above, sometimes I add a little embroidery as well. I embroider the fabric first, then adhere it to the onesie using Wonder-Under, and finish it off with a satin stitch on the sewing machine.
- Embellished infant tee
- Baby booties - I typically use the Stardust Shoes pattern, but I'm experimenting with a few others (to be posted soon)
- A changing pad and wipes clutch
- Baby bibs
- Tag blankets with taggie toys
