Melanie, stop reading now!

I have my niece's birthday party on Saturday and had already bought a sweet little felted waldorf baby from here but I kinda wanted a little pouchy, snuggly sack to put her in so Ellie could carry her either around her neck or in a little bag. I also wanted the bag to be of earthy colours since the waldorf baby is a pea and Ellie is having a garden party. This is what I came up with:

Sorry about the shite quality of the picture, still using my phone for pics, how sad :-(




I think she looks mighty happy in her new bed. I am sure Ellie will love her, I am not sure if she will love the fabric I chose since it's remarkably not pink or girly, but we'll see. It was a really easy little project I just plucked form my head and it all went reather smoothly except for the buttonholes. My machine is a bit of a fuddy duddy and she occasionally needs a tea break if I have been sewing for too long. She just would NOT let me finish the last button hole, kept screwing it up. So after a 15 minute break or so I came back and she finally let me complete the last hole. Honestly she really is an old woman!!
