Blessing dress


Not quite completed, added lace around bodice. I was making this for my friend Amber's baby, Laila. But, she didn't end up using it. Modified Simplicity pattern.

Owl


When I was up in Utah in January, Cali and I got to visit my bestie Marianne. In her apartment, she had this super cute shower curtain and I fell in love with the owls on it. So I thought I'd make her this little guy to put up on her bathroom wall.

Personalized clothing


These started out as plain puple pants. But, after an unfortunate bleaching incident, I decided to add stuff to it to make it look like it was done on purpose.

Guestbook


I wanted to make our own wedding scrapbook as a guest book out of some of the unused engagement photos. Our wedding photographer took this picture.

Cowboy Booties


I really wanted to make my sister something when she was pregnant with Wyatt, so I found this pattern online to make crocheted baby boots. I changed the colors up a little bit. I'm anxious to try it out with a cream and pink for a little girl.

Beanie Babies


Made Cali's baby an outfit because she kept taking off her clothes. I just kinda made up a pattern for the baby's beanie. It worked so well that I made one for Cali, too. :)

Uniform

My friend Rachel had her first baby back in 2007. I made this outfit for him with the Pacers' symbol and personalized it with their name. :) Turned out pretty good for making it up on my own.

Personalizied blanket


This was kind of a booger to make because I didn't have a cross stitch pattern with the Mustang on it so I had to make it up. Sean helped me pick out which plane to use. :) Love making things without a pattern. Again, another thing made for Wyatt.

Pirate Costumes

When Sean and I were first married, we made these pirate costumes for our first Halloween. 2 years later, we recycled them. I'd made a lot of changes to the costumes to make them better than the original pattern-but nobody but Sean and I would really notice it.
Thought it would be really cute to have Cali be the Monkey Jack. Made up a shirt/vest combo for her costume. As you can tell, it's just made out of leftover material from my costume.

Crib Comforter and Bumper



I really wanted Cali to have Roxy bedding, but they don't make Roxy baby bedding. So I bought a duvet cover and made my own. It was pretty easy, I pretty much just recovered some bumpers and a comforter that I was given. Turned out cute.

Diaper Holder



I knew I wanted to make a diaper holder, and I had the leftover pillowcase from the duvet cover set that I bought, so I got a Roxy one. :) Super easy to do, just a piece of cardboard at the bottom to stablize the whole thing.

"The Titty Tent" (AKA Hooter Hider)



Since I had the leftover Roxy fabric, and the fabric was so cool because it was made out of some swimtrunk-like material, I made myself a nursing cover. Inside I put pockets to hold nursing pads. :)
