I've said it before, and I'll say it again . . . . sewing projects are ALWAYS about the fabric! I found this great tutorial the other night over on Sew Much Ado (http://sewmuchado.blogspot.com/2009/05/ric-rac-receiving-blanket-tutorial.html) and just had to find the perfect fabric and make one. So I snuck out of the house . . . with a child in tow so I guess it wasn't really sneaking . . . and headed over to one of my favorite fabric stores that has the most amazing selection of flannel.
And here is what I ended up with!
I love the non-traditional girl fabric. This will have to find a new home with some new baby girl really soon.
Sew Much Ado's tutorial is really easy to follow - no need for me to do a new tutorial at all. Check her's out and make one of your own. All in all this took me about an hour. Love it!
So cute! I love the fabric too. And the orange ric rac was perfect! Thanks so much for letting me know about it :).
ReplyDeleteI'd love it if you added it to the Sew Much Ado Flickr group, here's the link if you'd like!

nice creativity and using good color combination. Orange rick rack is perfect match for this fabric.
