Fun projects

After trying to wrap Carsen in his baby towels and it not covering all of him enough to keep him nice and warm I was bound and determined to find him a good, thick and bigger towel with a hood. I don't know if you have ever looked in the store for something with all of those qualities, but it is impossible to find. So.....I decided to I decided to try my hand at making one myself. I found some really nice and thick towels at TJmaxx and borrowed the sewing machine and serger from the stake.
I am definitely no seamstress, but I think they turned out ok! I only sewed one thing on backward but it still works great :) I found a crafty blog that had a pattern and instructions to make one with little bear ears so I tried it on the one. pretty cute!

I have gotten so excited about sewing and different projects that I just went and got stuff to make another fun project....stay tuned!

Here are some of the pictures of the during after and in use.
I Love this cute boy!!

ok so I've been noticing the same thing with Makyla. she is just too big! It kind of makes me sad I'm not going to lie, I may be a little bit in denial because I have not admitted yet that we should make her a bigger one. I guess the time has come. :) haha ... they just grow up tooo fast!

Good job! They are so cute!
