Baby Girl Gift


My dear sister-in-law is about to have her baby and I put together this baby gift for her. We collaborated on the fabric choice and I absolutely love it! This gift basically has two parts.  For the baby and for the mom.

Starting off we have for the baby:


This darling little onesie dress was inspired by this dress from Smile and Wave.  I kept the onesie intact though and didn't cut it.  Now a girl in a darling dress needs some pretty kicks right?


I used the pattern from Tao Of Craft for her Modern Baby Bootie.  I switched things up after step 8 so that I wouldn't have the inside seams showing.  Such a cute outfit wouldn't be complete though without a hair accessory...


I attached a rolled flower to a piece of elastic to make this little headband.


Finally so that the baby can roll out in style, a matching car seat canopy.


I love to include some gifts for mom in my baby gifts:
First up is a silver Key to My Heart necklace.


Every mom can also use a pack of thank you cards


One baby gift down, one more to go! Check back to see another baby girl gift for one of my best friends!

  11. love your blog! latest follower... question - I made my first pair of baby shoes from the Tao Of Craft site as well...my first try was just "okay"... any chance you'd re-create their tutorial with your own and include how to hide the seam on the insides, AND make instructions specifically on left & right sides, so to ensure the velcro pieces attach on the outsides? Mine appeared to have the velcro on the insides... boo!
