The cot sheets for daycare from the ones i was shown were dead easy...
basically a single sheet, fold one third over sew one side & one end... & thats it... the final third is then like a top sheet.
ethan already started daycare a month or 2 ago and he doesnt need any sheets or anything .
I made him this little bag last night it only took like 10 minutes and he has been using it to carry his trains around all day . I still have a decent piece of the bob material left but dont know what else to make him .

wow that pretty cool i use sew but thay was way back in my schooling days lol
With the bob material could u make him some curtains or pillow cases and quilt cover.
Krissi I thought it was the same as your table.
What about making a table cloth to match your cushions.

I have a sewing machine that was given to us and I have never used it in 10 years and it is sitting in the garage. It is that bad I do not know if I have all the parts for it.
Shan,you have been a busy bee,love all your projects

Your quite the talent, for a first timer your stuff looks quite proffesional.
I got a new machine a few months ago and have been making shoulder bags, a quilted quilt for the kids to use as a throw over for their legs when they are cold and i still have a few project to finish.
I have a thomas panel that i am trying to hem with ribbon so that the ends don't fray and i have another throw quilt to make.
When i get time i'll put up some picks but don't hold me to it as i have become quite forgetful lately.

I also have 1 of those little $20 machines from the reject shop and with that i made a fitted set of pooh bear sheets for the cot.
i made this track suit for noah tonight , the flash has made it look much brighter then what i really is :) i need more practice with ribbing but it will still do its job and i still need to hem up the sleaves but need to put it on little noah first to see how much .
