Recent nursing covers

I have not completely fallen off the grid--I did recently make these two nursing covers. In case anyone is interested, I can make at least one more of each of these :-)

The latest nursing cover

This was an order for a friend who has given my nursing covers to several friends (thanks, KA!). I added a small pocket in the upper corner for stashing those necessary items (like runaway nursing pads! At least, mine always seemed to disappear...)

Beautiful nursing cover for sale--only $25!

***SOLD!!***
Last week I made five nursing covers for various friends. I wanted to give one of my friends a couple of covers from which to choose, so I still have this beautiful green nursing cover available. It is a lovely shade of spring green, not too pale but not too bright. It makes me wish for March/April, daffodils, and new growth! Anyway, if you are interested, let me know:-)

Pretty in pink nursing cover

A friend ordered a nursing cover for someone who is having a little girl. I made her two covers to choose from, and she chose this pretty in pink one. My daughter liked it too, and attempted to model it:-)

A nursing cover to travel the world

A dear friend of mine is leaving this weekend to move overseas. She is 13 weeks pregnant with her third child, and a nursing cover will be helpful for her once the baby arrives. The fabric I used works for either gender:-)

Baby gifts in Mirabelle fabric

You may remember this fabric from an apron I made for my best friend earlier this year. I love this fabric, and think it turned out beautifully as a nursing cover (and just for fun, a little burp cloth). The problem with finding a wonderful fabric is that it disappears eventually! Like this Alexander Henry Mirabelle fabric I used, or Amy Butler's Lotus Lacework, or Wonderland by MoMo. Thankfully, Etsy and Ebay can keep me stocked with my favorites :-)

For friends old and new :-)

Nursing Cover in Full Moon Polka Dots

A blue and brown theme

There seems to be a color theme here--lots of brown and blue/teal/aqua! I love brown myself, but most of these fabrics were picked because I thought others would like them:-) These items are not designated for anyone; I made them to have on hand as gifts or to sell, so if they strike your fancy, please let me know!

The one that started it all...

Two years ago, I made my first nursing cover (for myself, quite selfishly:-) based on the dimensions of a "real" nursing cover that a friend owned. I did not follow a tutorial of any kind, and to be honest, I am surprised it turned out as well as it did. My sewing skills were very rusty then! That cover was a labor of love, and has definitely gotten its workout over the past two years (it is now covering its second baby!). I love the fabric--my eye and heart is always drawn to batiks, yet this cover is the only thing I have that is batik. I loved the green and purple together with the leaf pattern. It wasn't until I brought the fabric home that I even noticed the deer in the pattern (I prefer to think they are gazelles, since that sounds more exotic). Anyway, here is my beloved cover, still looking spiffy after two years:

Twin, no, triplet, nursing covers :-)

I have cranked out several nursing covers recently, but couldn't share them because they were gifts. Finally, gifts have been given, and we are now just waiting on the cute little babies to arrive!

Brown scrollwork nursing cover

I have now made three nursing covers from this gorgeous brown scrollwork fabric from Sis Boom Basics. I bought this fabric on a whim, and everyone loves it! Unfortunately, it is hard to find now, so this may be the last one...

I am working on other things, but several of them are presents, so I cannot post pictures yet! Those will come soon.

Fun and funky floral

This is my latest sewing project, a nursing cover in a funky lime green floral (thanks for the order, T.P.!). I purchased a new sewing machine last week, and it has made sewing even more fun! It helps that the projects seem to come together more quickly with my new machine (probably because it does not have the issues my old machine had). I hope to get several more items sewn in the next couple of weeks, so keep an eye out for pictures.

Nursing cover in Brown scrollwork

This fabric worked up into a beautiful cover. Thanks for the order, A.C.!

Nursing Covers

For when you don't want to flash the world---

Nursing covers are an excellent way to nurse your baby with discretion and style. I made my own while I was nursing Georgia, then made several for friends, and it has just cotinued from there! I love making these both to sell and to give away. Check out the montage for my covers and available fabrics!
