Quick Baby Shower Gift Set

November 1, 2012 by Jodi 2 Comments

Apparently, this is Easy Project Week on Sew Fearless. Matthias’ godmother, Theresa, is due with her first baby this month, and I was lucky enough to spend a morning putting together a coordinating gift set for her.

When given the choice between a few of my standard baby gifts, she requested a nursing cover. Don’t you just love shopping for baby gift fabrics? There is such a wealth of options in quilting cottons, unlike when searching for apparel fabrics. I enjoy the balancing act of the mom’s taste, my taste, and the baby’s gender and how it plays out in my fabric choices.

Theresa asked for bright greens and browns. I had fun pairing it with the navy blue print. The Cutting Counter Lady raised her eyebrows at my choice, but am digging it. So 😛 to her.

Tutorials for items in the gift set:

  • My Easy Baby Blanket
  • Sew Much Ado: Nursing Cover Tutorial (similar)
  • Nap Time Crafters: Bib / Nursing Cover Clips (similar)

Find more baby gift inspiration in my “Bundles for Babies” archives, or on my “Teeny Tinies” Pinterest board.

What’s your favorite baby shower gift to give or receive?

    I love the fabric combination too. =) Those nursing covers are so handy too… until the kid learns to kick it out of the way or grab it and peek out at everyone… =)

Sew Fearless is about a reckless pursuit of the sewing craft. It is about not letting your fears talk you out of your dreams. It is a place to go for encouragement, information, and sewing camaraderie. It’s a place where “done” is better than “perfect”, and where saying “I didn’t try” is worse than “I failed”. Read More…
