This post is mostly for myself, so feel free to ignore, but this is my sewing to-do list before the baby gets here in November.
Oh yeah, if you didn’t know (which I think everyone who reads this does know) we’re having another baby! We’re super excited! Here’s a pic from when I was 5 weeks, so about 8 weeks ago now.
Impressive, huh? There’s not a whole lot to see there! We’ll be having the big ultrasound in about 5 weeks, so hopefully we’ll be able to find out the gender and everything!
Anyway…back to my list.
I get easily distracted lately.
I don’t think that’s anything new, though.
Ok…focus!
Bedding list:
Wash fabric (I’m so excited about this bedding! I’ll post pics when it comes in next week)
Cut bumper/batting
Cut crib skirt (I’m going to cheat and just attach it to the bottom of the crib, but don’t tell)
Purchase/make white or yellow sheets (whichever is cheaper)
Purchase plain white fabric for blanket
Purchase plain yellow fabric for embellishment
Purchase batting for blanket
Wash all fabric
Cut out embellishment and sew to top part of blanket
Sew blanket together
Quilt blanket (maybe)
I will have to repeat a lot of these steps depending on who gets to share a room with the babe. That will be a separate post.
Diaper sewing:
If you’re unfamiliar with cloth diapering, a lot of this may seem strange…I will post links explaining what each of these types of diapers are. Don’t feel like you must read/click on all of them or anything. It’s just so no one feels lost. 
15 newborn size fitteds (this is a fitted, mine normally have snaps or touch tape. It has to have a cover bc it’s not waterproof)
8 6 16/15 cut (serger ate them, boo)
16/15 attached touch tape/apply snaps
16/15 sewn (which includes sewing together/elastic/top stitching)
16/15 outter tt/snaps
5 newborn AI2s (this is an All in Two. Easiest to use…just slap it on like a disposable, but it’s the most involved to sew)
5/5 cut
5/5 soakers cut (the part that soaks up fluid…hence, soaker)
5/5 snapped
3/5 sewn
3/5 outter snaps applied
10 quick snap flap wrap (Here. Sort of like a fitted, super duper easy to make)
12/10 cut
12/10 sewn
4/10 snapped
8 covers (Here…these go over anything not waterproof)
I’ve actually knitted one wool cover, I’m not totally sure I love it, so I won’t count that one yet
8/8 cut
7/8 snapped
7/8 FOE’s (looks like this…and makes cover look like this)
Phew…this makes me tired looking at this list. I’ll have to make another one for the size smalls I have to make because I don’t want to get overwhelmed. Thankfully, I still have 26 weeks to work on all this. I’ll post pics of the process as it starts to come along.
