bags

This Christmas I have been making “night-night” bags for all the special little boys in our life (ok, not AAALLL of them but a bunch!). The idea behind them came from our little guy. He’s got some pretty specific “stuff” that he requires when he goes “night-night”. Unless he’s got Guy, Oma-bear, Gay-see-bear, Huskie, Little-Tiny-Bebe-bear, Oma blank and “water-cup” he ain’t settling! When we have a babysitter or when we go sleep overnight somewhere, it’s a challenge to remember everything! The idea behind these bags is to toss in everything your little monkey needs for bed when they are off to Grandma’s for a sleepover or when you are off for date night (or if you just feel like being organized at home).

Each one is customized with their initial on the front of the bag. I used the skaterdudes font for all of the letters and attached them with heat and bond lite and then a zig-zag stitch.

Inside you’ll find a little pocket for a soother or board book and a key fob to attach a favourite toy.

I’m pretty excited about how these are turning out. This is my first attempt at designing my own pattern so I’m pretty happy with how they look.

This particular bag is for our daughter’s teachers son. Hope they both like it!
