Hello fellow crafters,
Well I have been a busy little bee over the last few months, making Christmas presents and decorations for home.
Now not all of the items I have made have been photographed as I am really bad in that regard but my darling hubby was kind enough to take photos of some of the things I still have here.
To start with, I made some more diaper covers for "the little one", who made her entry into this world on December 22nd. Her parents have called her Rebecca and she is a little darling (not a proud Great Aunt much). We are going to meet her next week and get some cuddle time in. I felt it was important to let the new family settle in a bit before going to visit.
So these are the photos of the diaper covers/nappy covers that I have crocheted. They are different sizes but I am hoping that they will be liked and well worn.
Just plain red ones with white trim around it.
This was done in 8ply wool.
These little pink ones are a 4ply with white trim and a little golden crown on the back because everyone has to know that Rebecca is our little princess :-)
These purple ones are again in 8ply with a 4ply multi pink frill on the back. So easy to make and oh so effective I think.
These little pale blue ones with white trim look very unisex. Will go well with any little outfit that is blue or has a hint of blue in it.
Again I used 8ply for these ones.
The patterns I used were from the following sites:

Diaper Covers
This was done in 8ply wool.
These purple ones are again in 8ply with a 4ply multi pink frill on the back. So easy to make and oh so effective I think.
These little pale blue ones with white trim look very unisex. Will go well with any little outfit that is blue or has a hint of blue in it.Again I used 8ply for these ones.
The patterns I used were from the following sites:
- Bobbles and Baubles, Free Pattern Friday, Adjustable Diaper Cover
- Flowers Creations, Free Diaper Cover
- Redheart's Cutie Blue Bird Hat and Diaper Cover (Pattern #LW4295 (This one I actually adjusted a bit to suit a newborn as the pattern starts off at 3 - 6 mo)
Now as well as these ones, I also made a few Diaper Covers for my sons partner's sister and her partner. They are expecting a little boy in the next couple of weeks so of course, I had to make something that was boyish.
A pair of royal blue diaper covers with red trim and little red fish on the back, were what I came up with. Note: there is not that many patterns out there for embellishments/applique when it comes to little boys.
As both parents are avid Australian Rules Football supporters, I felt it would be nice to make a pair in each team color that they barrack for. In this case it was Collingwood and Saint Kilda.
Photos of these to come at a later date.
Please read next post to see what else I have been up to.
Happy Crafting
