LeapPad Cover

Here's the little cover I made for my Little One's Christmas present. She is going to be so chuffed.



Started off with This: A blanket (or batting will do just fine) and some pretty contrasting material.


 Cut out the blanket/batting a little bigger than the LeapPad, leaving enough for the flap.


Cut out both pieces of the Material, the same size as the batting. I left a little around the edges and trimmed it afterwards.


Stitch along the middle to quilt the pieces together.



Pretty on both sides.


Here's where I added the ribbon, for a pretty finish.


Strips of the Contrasting fabric for the Edging.


Edge the top and bottom before sewing the sides together.


Edge the sides and add the finishing touches - elastic and a button.

Twirly Cirlce Skirt

Just a little Twirly Circle Skirt.  This was quite fun to make, although with all those seams, I don't think I will be making one again in a hurry.



And a little reversible top. The pattern was for a dress, I cut it out as a dress, I sewed it as a dress, but a little incident involving the binding led me to chop the bottom bit off and voila - A Top. Oh Well, it's still pretty, and that, after all, is all that's important!

Letter Applique



I think this might just be my favourite so far....


I might just hide it for the first day of preschool in January.

Chococat Applique

A few more little applique T-shirts. A little Minnie Mouse and our all time favourite ChocoCat. Although apparently, I mustn't forget to still put the eyes on Minnie.

Toddler Cap

I made this sweet little cap for my little girl. Although she looks none too amused, she actually loves it.
