Didn't know if we could share how to make things , like clothes, beds, toys, stairs etc..... It took me along time to save to get my baby. And now that he is here I want him to have nice things too. I have made him some cute shirts and coat. I made him a sweatshirt out of a sweatshirt sleeve. Free from hubby.A beautiful coat from a fleece scarf from the thrift store 1$ and a bed out of baby blankets from thrift store. 2$ plus left over throw pillows that I took the stuffing out of. Just wondering if anyone would like to share ideas |
I unsderstand the desire to have cool stuff for your baby. I too am getting my baby on the lay away plan!...
LOL! And I have little extra money to buy him cute things. I am making some sweaters and coats and a snuggle bed/mat by crocheting them. I have some patterns for cute little animals to crochet too. Here is a link for that. I think these would make great toys for our little ones!

I don't have a sewing machine or I would make little shirts and stuff too. That is the best way of showing your love is by making him home made things! It doesn't matter that it didn't cost much, they show love. I too would like to see pictures of the things you have made!
