Today's Sewing Projects

The first project was a wool puddle pad to catch any leaks when the baby is in its bed or cuddled up in ours. I looked at buying these and they were a bit more than I saw fit to spend. My sister-in-law, Jac, suggested XL men's wool sweaters from Goodwill, and that's exactly what I did! This one is cashmere and a bit thinner (even though it's a double layer). I felted it though, so hopefully that will help! I have extra cashmere from the sweater. I think I will make a diaper cover with it.

The next project was a sweet little rattle from a sewing book I have. It's not the best quality of sewmanship (is that a word??), but it'll work for the little pea. :)
