5 minutes DIY fitted sheet for moses basket

My due date is pretty close now, so I am trying to finish all little sewing projects for the little one. Today I made fitted sheet from spare fabric and it took me basically 5-7 minutes with all the measuring, cutting & sewing. I can imagine how often sheets need to be changed when it comes to baby, so I will definitely do more! 

Take the mattress out of the moses basket and put on fabric. Allow 3 inches for seaming on each side when cutting the fabric.

Sew a casing seam all the way around the fabric and then sew on elastic band. I used 5mm thin elastic band.  Don't forget to stretch it  when sewing on!
 

And that's it! Easy peasy!

IVORY fold over clutch

The latest MirkaDesign* bag is called IVORY. As you know Ivory is a soft neutral colour that isn't quite white and has some of the earthiness of light browns. Ivory represents quiet, pleasantness with a touch of lustre.

I think IVORY is a very convenient and calming colour which you can combine with almost everything. 

What makes this clutch different from others is material. It's made from durable felt backed vinyl, it's beautifully structured, waterproof and very light! 

It closes with a zip in same tone. The bag is fully lined with 100% cotton.

Christmas Gift Guide

Hi Everyone!

It's hard to believe there is only 5 weeks to Christmas. It seems like it was just 2 months ago when I opened my last year's Christmas present... So here we are again .. The magic time of Christmas is back!

I like to have things organized and I always buy gifts early. I don't like crowded shops and long queue so I prefer to buy presents in October/November. This year I bought almost everything online. It is the easiest way how to do your shopping without having a trouble with finding parking space, looking for an assistance for half an hour, or be stock in traffic for ages. That's why I prepared few great items for you as well which I highly recommend as a gift for any member of your family, friend or loved one. Enjoy and let me know if you like it!
