| Ok, somewhere in this nest are the materials for a new fun baby's toy! | | | | |
|
|
|
You'll need: 6 - 4" pieces of ribbon
2 - 6"x 6" pieces of fabric
1 - 6"x 6" piece cut from a baby wipe package. You're just look'in for the crinkle factor here.
 |
| I'm going for interesting to a baby here...so this is what I came up with. |
|
Take 1 piece of your fabric and pin the ribbons with the unfinished edges facing the salvages.
I just ran a baste stitch over each ribbon a 1/4" from the edge.
 |
| I placed the other piece of fabric down, right sides together. |
Place the two fabrics right sides facing each other, and layer your piece of crinkle on top. Pin all around.
 |
| This is my crinkle piece. |
|
Sew all around at a 1/2" seam allowance leaving a 3 inch gap unsewn. Then pull inside out...or in this case, right side out.
 |
| A little wrinkled, but my daughter will not mind. |
 |
| Ok, here we are! It's a little rough, but with my 4 month old on my lap while I sewed, I think this turned out pretty good. |
Top stitch around with a decorative stitch, if you got it, and Viola!!
Now just hand it over to your little one.
It is such a hit. This also can be thrown in the washer as need be. What could be better?
Faith, if you want one, just let me know!
