This weeks deliveries.
So I race home from swimming today to find lots of goodies waiting for me at the door. There is three mtrs of coloured PUL and a whole stash of oh so soft minky! On the to sew list obviously more nappies for Tom's bum and some bibs for my numerous girlfriends who are up the duff. Fingers crossed I don't have to fight the minky this time round.

Dad's little helper.
They are fully lined for extra comfort but still roomy enough for a full set of clothing on underneath. Great for these Melbourne winters! I used snaps instead of buttons, for ease and speed when putting on or removing the overalls. Also because I love to snap!
They are extra long in the leg so as to get a couple of years out of them, hopefully. Overall pretty happy with the less than perfect finish, but who is looking that closely?!

Crawl before you walk...
Finished pocket close-ups.
After gaining some confidence with the machine I have been madly sewing. Mostly stuff for bubs and have already passed it on to family members without taking any pics. Here are some closer pics of my pocket nappies for my wee man.
This was my first attempt at a minky nappy. I just love the look (and feel) of minky, but man that gorgeous fabric was so hard to work with! Am yet to brave any more minky attempts...will keep you posted.
Baby Steps...
