Onesie

Hi Stampers,

You can tell I'm on a baby kick with yesterday's post and now today. . . . I can't believe my 3rd trimester starts on Sunday . . . time has gone very fast.  My ultrasound went very well yesterday, and the baby is 2 lbs 5 ozs.  I go back in 3 weeks and they'll do another ultrasounds.  The baby was sitting very low and they couldn't get all of the readings that they wanted.

So with a baby on the mind I wanted to share with you the Onesie I found on the Stampin' Up! website last night.



Stamps: None
Paper: None
Ink: None

Accessories: Pretty in Pink taffeta ribbon, Sizzix Big Shot, Pennant Bigz XL die, Scallop Circle #2 Bigz die, 1" wide elastic, Sewing machine and thread, Baby onesie and Fabric

Instructions:

Die cut 12 pennants using Big Shot and Pennant Bigz XL die. Gather and adhere to 1" elastic using sewing machine and thread.

Die cut seven small scallop circles using Big Shot and Scallop Circle #2 Bigz die. Fold over five scallops and adhere to collar of onesie using sewing machine and thread.

Die cut 10 small scallop circles using Big Shot and Scallop Circle #2 Bigz die. Gather the circles across three of the scallops on the same double-thread. Tie off.

To create ribbon flowerette, tie a knot in the end of Pretty in Pink taffeta ribbon, then tie a new knot every three inches. Gather the ribbon in between each knot.

Adhere ribbon to flower, then sew entire piece to onesie.

Wash and dry to give shabby-chic look.

I can't wait to give this a try, but I better wait until the baby comes. . . . I'd hate to put a little boy in this onsie. :o)
Thanks for stopping by today!
