\"baby-sleepsack1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A couple of days ago, I had coffee with one of my funnest (and funniest) friends and hung out with her four-month-old cutie pie son. Babies! It’s been so long since I’ve held a tiny baby. The little guy was as mellow as can be and happily let me bounce him on my knee while my friend and I nearly spurted coffee everywhere from excessive laughing. We got quite a few askance looks from the other coffee shop patrons.<\/p>\n

I had been planning on gifting this wee baby sleep sack I started designing for a collaborative project and wanted to see if it would fit him, but it’s funny how you forget actual baby sizes when you haven’t had one in oh, almost eight years. I determined that I must have been designing for American Girl dolls instead of real live babies. Or preemies. The project ended up falling through for non-design related reasons, but it was a good thing since this sleep sack needs more work.<\/p>\n

I still think the design itself is cute with the colorblock bottom, and the dotty double-gauze is definitely upping the sweetness factor. I used this same fabric for a french style dress<\/a> a while ago. This will become a birthday present for K’s friend, who is having an American Girl birthday party in a couple of weeks. K asked why there were armholes if it was meant for a girl doll and not a baby doll, to which I told her it’s the new trend. I don’t think she believed me.<\/p>\n

I like it so much, I’m thinking of grading it up into multiple sizes and offering it as a downloadable pattern – anyone interested? Of course, it would probably take me a gazillion years to get around to it…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
