Embellish some plain baby clothes!

Want to make a quick personalized gift for a new momma?  It's not as hard as you may think!  This is a quick and easy project that you will love to make and baby will love to receive!  I'll walk you through it ! ;)


You'll need a pack of plain white onesies or little baby tee-shirts, some stitch witchery (you can get this at JoAnn's or Michaels),  fabric scraps, and an iron.

1. Cut your desired shape out of both the fabric and stitch witchery and pin the design in place on your onesie (the stitch witchery should be in between the layers).
2.  Cover the onesie with a damp press cloth and set your iron on "wool" with steam.
3.  Press the design for 10 seconds on each side of the fabric being careful not to slide the iron.  Let it cool off then make sure the design has stuck (if there are any loose edges, go ahead and press it again).
4.  Afterwards, you can finish it off with a quick zip through your sewing machine or sew it by hand to give the border a more defined edge.

It's as simple as that!  And I guarantee, Mommy (& baby) will love it! :)

I just cut out baby's initial from some cute fabric
Of course, I couldn't resist adding a little something cute to the butt!
This little dino was the perfect embellishment for baby's bottom! :)
