I actually pulled out my sewing machine yesterday, started AND finished this little project all in ONE sitting! Aren't you proud?! I'm a sad little sewer, but it's a goal of mine to get better, so this is great for beginners like me :) Here is the link for the free pattern I used. Just print, cut, and tape it together...then you can use it. It's a little tedious for a pattern but hey, it's FREE!
All you need is 1 yard of fabric, a 24 in zipper, thread and a machine :) Easy-peasy!
Every mother needs a Boppy, heck if you don't have one, make your own version with this pattern (skip the zipper and stuff it!) so I made this for a girlfriend who is expecting any day now! It's great to have a couple of these slipcovers handy with messy little ones. The nursery decor is adorable, it's rock and rock musical instruments/themed, with a blue and brown color scheme so hopefully these brown musical symbols will fit right in. I'll be making more for her little guy, so stay tuned...
*UPDATE*
Just made this one this evening for another friend who I think will have her little girl tonight! I'll be working on baby things here in the next couple days! Fun, fun!!! Cute right?!

ReplyDeleteGreat job on the boppy covers! Thanks for linking @Creative Itch's "Sew Cute Tuesday"!
ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics you've used! I've done a couple covers too, but one of them I used hook and loop tape instead of a zipper and that worked well too. Thanks for sharing your project! Rebecca
