I have completed #51 on my 101 in 1001: Make a clothing item for squishy baby. When I made the list "squishy baby," my youngest nephew, was not yet born. Now he is almost big enough to fit in the outfit I made him (below). Overall I am happy with the way it turned out, although the snap opening is not done correctly. I have ripped it out and re-done it twice and it is still not right. It is functional and he is a baby and can't complain, so I think it will be okay.
I definitely think that I chose a project that was too difficult considering it was the first project I have done with my new machine.
I have also made a cat bed. I just decided on a whim to do in on Saturday. I wanted to see if I could make it in the time that Prince E showered and shaved his head. I just about made it too! It is really just a flat pillow and none of the cats has gone on it yet, but I have hope!
