Sew Crafty

 
The other night after the kids were in bed I went to my sister's house to do a little cooperative sewing (She does the hard stuff and advises me on the easy stuff).  I made a wet bag for my diapers, I bought one from another mom and decided a second one would be nice, so the blue bag is a for my diaper bag so when I change my cloth diapers while we are out, I can put the wet one in there and it doesn't smell up the diaper bag, the van, or the store/house.  Zippers are not the easiest, but I bought a separated one which made sewing it quite easy.
Since little Asher is drooling more and most of his bibs have been through Landon and Gideon, I wanted a few more nicer looking bibs.  On Pinterest I found some cute bib ideas where you use old shirts to make into cute bibs (upcycling is the crafty/environmentally friendly term to describe using old stuff) . . . So I cut up a couple of my old shirts and found clearance terry cloth to back them.  I need to do the velcro closures after I buy some velcro.
Crafty Mindy didn't need a pattern and she whipped out this cute little wallet for Briella.  My next project is to sew a purse that will match the wallet . . 
sew much fun!!
