There are so many baby items out there that are completely unnecessary, but made to sound like if you want to be a good mommy, then you HAVE to buy it! I don't know about you, but I think I am a pretty good mom even though I didn't buy the Pottery Barn silk lined, gold rimmed, organic wipe dispenser.. and better yet.. my child has survived the barbaric use of un-organic items and knock off brands. But hey.... just because I don't have the money to buy them, doesn't mean that I wouldn't mind having some.A good example are those adorable baby-leggings. I think they are just so dang cute, but 
unfortunately I can't get myself to buy something that, technically, I can live without.... I guess. But this is where I get my cake and eat it too :)

I found a quick little tutorial for making home made baby leggings and they are pretty easy. The instructions provided are a little vague which makes them sound way more complicated than they really are... but just using common sense will help. I made two pairs and they turned out well. They do pucker a little on the cuff and I couldn't figure out how to make it smoother, but still cute.So, if you are wanting to try out this quick tutorial then go check out the baby-leggings.
You find the cutest ideas. And baby leggings can help keep baby warm!
ReplyDeleteThose are great. I may adapt them for my 4-year-old who insists that dresses are the only acceptable form of attire.
ReplyDeletevery cute!! I went to the sight and saw the sewing maching and instantly got scared.. I have one, but everytime I use it..which is never :) I'm afraid I'm going to sew my finger.lol I wish I had that talent! I love your ideas!

ReplyDeleteThis is neat and sure it will keep their little legs warm for the winter. Might make a nice gift too.
ReplyDeleteI loved sewing for my babies! Good for you for trying something new and useful to boot!
ReplyDeleteI made some last year for Peanut and they weren't that hard. The good part is that you can make them out of stockings that have a hole in the heel lol. Yes, you don't need the heel or toe of the stocking to make these adorable leggings.
