I have been busy today. I found this pattern for making a Hooter Hider here, and decided that I wanted to tiss mine up a little so used this as the basic pattern and then added some frills and ruffles to mine. I friend suggested an inside pocket, so I might investigate that one on the next ones I make.
I have had a ball using my new sewing machine ( which I got for Christmas and haven't had a chance to use much this year) and my new overlocker that I got yesterday. So good to be back into sewing again. Have a few little projects I want to tackle now.
Here's my efforts from this afternoon....

Hooter Hiders - so easy to make. |
The pattern was plan but I added this
|
A ruffle across the boning. |
|
And then I added this
|
A frill across the bottom |
|
Just helps to make it a little more feminine.... I mean it doesn't matter whether you have a girl or a boy. These are really for the mums anyway.
The first lot of these I made, I also made a couple of matching burper clothes, and then put them all in a little draw string bag with a ruffle on it too. Will starting making those tomorrow night... So much to do before we go away next week.

My cousin is using the hooter hider. She has 2 kids and was saying that hooter hider is by far the good quality, most comfortable, convenient and flexible for traveling.
They are GORGEOUS Karen - love the ruffles!! Might have to get myself some boning so I can make a couple.
