diaper clutch

November 5th, 2007

I made this a few months back for a dear friend with a new baby. The pattern is from Amy Karol’s lovely book, Bend the Rules Sewing. But I made it quite a bit bigger so it could accommodate a couple diapers and a travel pack of wipes. The patchwork stripe continues around the back and the bag is lined with the same ruler print. The rest is linen. It turned out a little classy and I think that’s what you need when most of your day is spit up and mooshed carrots and dirty diapers. I got such wonderful feedback when I put the picture up on flickr, that I thought I’d share it here as well. And it would make a nice (and quick) christmas gift.

I’m trying to post everyday this month (in the spirit of NaBloPoMo) but it’s 9pm on the 4th day and I’m already sweatin’ it, so we’ll see what happens.  Hope everyone had a lovely weekend!

    I really like this. And, being two months pregnant, I now need to figure out all these kinds of things I now need..

    I got here via Nablopomo.

    It’s beautiful. I like it.

    I’m sure you’ve heard it many times over before — you’re SO SO SO talented and crafty! I love all of the ones you’ve posted.

    Great idea. I always have about four diapers smashed at the bottom of my purse, this sure would be handy. Also, we did the cardboard dollhouse this weekend. So much fun. Thanks!

    So cute! You’ve inspired me to make one of my own.
