I have lots of excuses

I don't have a sewing table yet in the room I want for a sewing room. I'm still unpacking.

I'm just so uncomfortably pregnant.
Jackson quit naps over the holidays.
I have lots (even more than that) of excuses for not sewing these lovelies for the new baby. I couldn't even remember the other cute baby project tutorials i've seen online. send me a link if you know of more cute ones. seriously. i'm gonna start again soon.

Those leggings are incredibly adorable! I just wish I could sew some of those for Brooke! How cute!

Nothing motivates like a sewing table. Long ago I found a good one on craigslist for $15 and it got me going. You can do these...good luck!

Oh Natalie. You don't want me to link you to any tutorials. Seriously, I have about 100 to-do projects in my head right now.

Here are a few:

I've actually made this and it's pretty easy. I didn't use it very much (I used my home-made Moby wrap instead, but it turned out really nice!)

This is the easiest thing ever to make and I use this ALL.THE.TIME now that I don't really carry a diaper bag anymore.

I made one of these recently for our trip to Disney and it was super-easy as well. I don't use it very much because it likes to sag in the stroller, but here you go anyway!

Happy sewing! My newest obsession is quilting and I'm making Calvin a baby quilt even though he's almost 17 months old!

I love those projects! Cally is so talented. We really do need to get together and sew sometime after you have your baby and before I have mine. I've even read about a group of girls getting together, renting a cabin for the weekend and sewing together. Wouldn't that be so fun?
