Thankfully, I know the baby’s sex, name and nursery theme. Bless those mama’s who share. My life just got easier. AND, the nursery theme is owls. Doing a happy dance, now!
It took me all of 5 seconds to find this adorable owl embroidery design. Ten seconds if you count the time it took to purchase and download. I added the baby’s name in my software and then did a bit of housework while the design stitched out.
I also wanted something that had a raw edge design to it. Rather than hunting this down, I printed out one of the larger designs from the set, since, the design set comes in three sizes. Then I traced it out.
Picked out some cute fabric scraps from my stash.
Traced the designs BACKWARDS onto the back of a fusible web (Steam A Seam 2, Wonder Under, etc.)
Ironed the fusible web pieces to the back of my fabric.
Cut out the designs and ironed them onto a pre-fold diaper. (Oops,I forgot to snap a picture of this before stitching.) I also drew a couple of legs with a water soluble marker.
Straight stitch around all of the raw edges and stitch the legs.
Now, isn’t he adorable!
Excess is never enough! Of course, there will be a burp cloth with the baby’s name in large letters. See here for how-to directions.
How cute is that!
