    Default I made this for CJ *Updated* Found the Pattern!

    Congratulations on winning the baby guessing contest. I can't think of anyone else I'd rather have ds share a birthday with.

    I want to show it off, I think it turned out really cute. I cant get a good pic of the heart and embroidery though with my cheap camera.

    Ugh, ignore the dirty oven door please. Dd thinks it's a mirror!

    Edited to add: I found the pattern for this at http://www.craftsayings.com/projects...s/index.shtml. Mine's cuter though.

    Instructions? I saw one that someone had made and went from there. I made a pattern for the top, cut out 4 pieces and stitched up the sides and "neckline", right side out and press. Decorated the front. Cut a cheap kitchen towel in 1/2, zig zag the raw edge. Pressed a bottom hem in the top part and sewed the towel to the back of it (I wish I was smart enough to get it on the inside, I have an idea now to try with the next one). Sewed ribbon across to tie on the sides and stiched together at the shoulders.

    That helps a lot doesn't it. I sew like I cook, lol, don't really know what I'm doing, but it comes out OK in the end.
