yesterday i sewed a nursing cover for myself. if the baby plans on staying put, maybe i will get around to my new diaper bag too.

people have been asking for instructions on how to make simple chaing pads and burp cloths. all you do is sew two rectangles (one fabric and one terry) together and then turn them inside out and sew around the circumference again. you just need to know the dimensions – the burp cloth (before you sew it) is 10×18 inches and the changing pad is 16×22. sew your two rectangles together with a half inch seam allowance then turn them inside out and sew around again with your foot right against the edge. don’t forget to throw in some ribbons on the changing pad (for tying). i don’t think it’s hard enough to merit real directions, so i do hope you survive.
