Here's the progress I've been making in my sewing adventures.
I made 5 inch cotton blocks out of leftover fabric and fat quarters, I put in jingle bells so it makes noise when you shake them. I made these for my nephew who is turning 1 in May. I also managed to sell a set of these to someone that was uber impressed! I also sold the same person a custom name baby blanket like the one I made my girlfriend, and a toddler bag. Yay! Kei Vahns is making some progress.
I also made (what I like to call) a Snuggie for my nephew. It is 12x26 double layered minky fabric. My idea was to replace a toddler's attachment to a larger blanket that they drag around (i.e. my son with his gross blanket).
Over school vacation my other nephew who is turning 7 in July visited for the week and to entertain him, I brought him to Jo-Anns to let him pick his own fabrics for his bag. I altered my toddler version of this bag to make it bigger. The bag is about 13x16, I would say its about 25 to 30% bigger than my toddler bag.
