A Themed Baby Set
Thanks to some extended nap times this week, I was able to start my baby swap package (so no peeking of you're my partner).
One of the themes she liked was teddy bears - believe it or not, I had looked at my local stores and never found anything, so I went with another one she liked.... rubber ducks. Jackpot! I found 'just the right' fabric in the nursery section of Joann's and went to work on a 'themed' grouping of items:
So far, I have a burp rag, bib, and an embellished onesie. I intend on finishing up the set with a pair of baby booties and a rubber ducky soap.

The duck motif is so cute an cheerful. Nice job!
(When I worked in retail fabrics, we would get teddy bear fabrics but most people had difficulty using them because they were mostly brown. The MOST popular teddy bear print ever was a Hoffman print of multicolor-ombre bears because it was so cute and fun.)
