I have to say that I’m about to make one of these for my own baby next. I’ve just finished up this last one piece (dare I say onesie? they might come get me if I do!!!! lol….have you heard how that word is trademarked and they have asked people to remove it from their sites?…) for a friend of mine who’s having a boy very very soon.
I was inspired by those maps you see at the mall. You know, the directories, and there is a star where you are stating “you are here”. I wanted to make that concept into something for baby and this is what I came up with.
I added a fabric applique of the state baby will be born in and a star in the specific area. Then I embroidered “Born Here” and the red around it on a piece of felt. Then I added the fusible interfacing to that and ironed it on. That way I didn’t have to tie any knots with the thread. You can still feel those sometimes you know? This way that wouldn’t happened. I also sewed it in place for extra staying protection.
Now I’ve got a box of baby boy things to get in the mail!
These are so cute! What a great idea. Now I just need someone I know to have a baby!
Oh wow! Super cool parcel. I really like the “born here” idea… and those thongs (erm, flip flop in the US right?) are so cute!!! Sigh. Cute bitty baby things.
I also noticed your football blanket in the background. One spoilt bubba coming up! 😀 Love it!!!
I love those!!! I want one for me! Do they make them in adult sizes!? ; )
those are so cute!!!
This is adorable!
Adorable! Can i ask where you got the onsies?
I have not heard of anyone being asked to remove “onsie” from their site…how annoying.
I love love the glasses one. Oh, boy clothes are so cute. 🙂
Too cute!!
You are so creative.
Trademarks are so silly 🙂 I love the outfits. I think it’s annoying how cutesie all the baby boy stuff in stores is. I mean, I know they’re babies and as such very cutesie, but can’t a little guy get some cool clothes? Ha! Ok rant over. (Love the sunglasses one!)
Just darling! It would be fun to make some for my sister and friends who are expecting! I love the blanket too.
Loistava idea! Great idea!
So super cute! I wish my kids were smaller so I could make a little t-shirt for them. I guess a big kid size t-shirt might be cute too. Love your site!
aw, I love it. Super cute/cool.
Onesie? Seriously? I still have people not even know what I’m talking about when I say onesie, and it’s all I ever remember it being called growing up… onesies!
What next, trademarking the word ‘skort’ or something?
