I like making gifts for babies and one of my favourite things to make are babygrows.
Well it's a bit of a cheat really, as I don't actually make the babygrow, but I buy good quality ones in packs.
I have found that the parents love receiving personalised gifts, so I use the Slice (there are lots of fun tutorials on the Slice site) to cut the initial of the baby - as shown here in today's pic - B for Beatrice.
It's really easy to do -
- Choose your fabric (needs to be lightweight if you are using the Slice to cut)
- Iron on some fusible web (Making Memories do their own, but a decent lightweight fusible web will do), but leave the backing sheet on
- Choose your initial / shape and either draw onto the fabric and cut out, or use your Slice to do this
- Remove your initial / shape from the fabric and peel off the backing and iron onto the babygrow
- Then using a decorative stitch on your machine, sew around the shape
- Give the babygrow one last iron, iron on your nametab and the babygrow is complete.
Have a good day.
