Diaper Bag Prototype





































I saw this really cute thing at a baby botique the other day. It's a bag that holds 2-3 diapers and a package of travel wipes. It's great to have so you're diapers don't get scrunched in your diaper bag or purse. It's really convenient to have everything in one little bag so you can just pull it out and go. Plus, the bags come in all sorts of really cute fabrics so it makes it cute to carry around. So I bought the bag and then took it to my mom since she is the master seamstress of the world. She totally made a great pattern and then constructed the prototype so we can start pumping out some great baby shower gifts. The top photos is the one that I bought in the botique and the bottom one is the one we made. Don't pay attention to the fabric, it was some random stuff my mom had laying around. Let me know what you think.

Wow, it turned out great! You'll have to show me how to make one too. Such a cute idea! I am very excited about Harry Potter tonight!

Funny, I thought the same thing when I saw that, "that would be so easy to make!" I made something similar, but the one I made also serves as a changing mat. Fun, fun, fun. Don't you just love moms!

THAT is a SUPER CUTE idea.
If I ever have a baby...
I'll expect a package. :)
Or, you could put the pattern on the web...
either way. :D

Hey it's Kim from nursing school. I got your blogspot from Liz. How are things going? Well I love the diaper bags; my brother-in-law actually made me a pattern for those too; they make great gifts. You should try to make the nursing shields; I love those. Anyways how's life? Check out our new blog at www.hansenspuds.blogspot.com

Love it, and I love the fabric your mom had lying around. That is such a good idea, I have such a hard time keeping my diapers somewhat normal in my purse (well pullups these days)

I think the bag is so cute, and I like the button, you could get really creative with cool buttons.
