Way Cute Bubble Dress

I've been wanting to make one of these for awhile now. And every tutorial I found on them. Weren't quite what I was picturing in my head. So...I made up my own, and am quite happy with how it turned out. Obviously it would look cuter if I had a little girl to put it on...  I don't have a little girl to model, but I do have the right sized, little... Oh Brady................. Just kidding I wouldn't put it on my son. Well, I wouldn't post a picture of him in it, on the Internet anyway. lol!

You can have the straps crossed like in the picture or just straight down. I'm working on some matching bloomers they will probably be the solid blue color. And some booties, oh and a matching hair accessory.

               I haven't posted in awhile, but have been making things like crazy! Heres one of my latest...
APPLIQUED ONESIES and MATCHING BOOTIES
I have a beautiful new niece Rylee, that I made these for. It was my first try at making booties and I was very happy, with how they turned out.


What do you think?

Check out this cute rag flannel blanket. I got the idea from a pic I saw on facebook. I wasnt sure how wide to cut the strips so i just guessed. The strips are 7 inches by 36 inches. Once I sewed them all together, they fit quite nicely on 1 yard of the white flannel, there was just a couple inches of the width of the white flannel that i had to cut. I found this so much easier then doing squares as I am new at this sewing thing. The nice thing about flannel is that is frays so well. I cant wait to make another one.

I have been wanting to make a dress for Jovi for a while, but just have never gotten around to it. Well, I finished this dress in about a half hour. It was so easy! I just did my own measurements and wish I would have done it a little bit bigger, but it fits at least. I got the idea on how to put it together here, but just changed a few things.
Now I just need some cute sandals for her to wear with it. =)

LUGGAGE TAGS
Ok, so I don't totally love the coordinating fabric I chose for these, but they will be perfect for when we go on vacation. Go here for a great tutorial if you ever travel. =)


These are the ones Hannah made...
They are definitely not as pretty as Jackies, but they'll work.  And if I was ever to make some more, theres a couple things I would change.

Carseat Covers
I've been making these carseat covers like crazy! I had gotten a tutorial on them here awhile ago and had made a couple. They were super cute, but after seeing tons of other cute ones that were slightly different in style, I decided to change a few things. So these are a couple of my first few in this style.
I feel like they turned out pretty cute, but I still wasn't completely happy with my measurements and stuff. So I kept tweaking things, and they keep getting better and better.

WET BAG
This is another little project I've been wanting to put together. It was pretty simple to make, but it was a bit tricky working with the vinyl on the inside. I think I would use plastic next time. If you're interested in making one go here for directions. It will be nice to have for the swimming pool or just to have in the diaper bag for those dirty diapers or panties.

My cousin Jackie had made one of these boxy pouches, and I just knew I needed to make one. It was pretty easy, and they are so cute. The tutorial came from here. I'm going to give it as a gift to one of my good friends, lipgloss in it and gift card.
These pictures really show the threads I still need to nip, so try to ignore those.
