This shopping cart cover was made from a pattern I bought on etsy. I made some slight changes, but not much. It has worked well for us both for shopping carts and for highchairs (especially those weird shaped ones at fast food places). Here is a link to the pattern.
I had some money to buy fabric and I decided to buy some things that I've seen and wanted but have no plan for specifically. Well, the black and white one has a plan of sorts...it's to be part of a quilt that I have fabric for but no design yet. :)
This one isn't sewing, but there is fabric in it. This was a present for my mom for her birthday. It has pictures and handprints of all her grandkids.
And this is Aunt Lisa's birthday present (well, there was one non-handmade piece). I had run across the idea at a blog called Trey and Lucy. They're not quite as modern looking as I would prefer generally, but they sure are practical...especially if you have kids around...and Aunt Lisa will have to deal with that soon enough. :) PS: They're towels to hang on the oven handle.
And finally...Sara has her own hooded towel. It took me a while to find some striped towels that I liked. I wanted hers to be similar to Nathan and Caroline's towels. She had long outgrown anything else we had with a hood on it. Now she can be all cozy in her own soft hooded towel.

So great! I must have over done myself around Christmas, b/c I've taken a HUGE break from sewing. Just got down there yesterday to make something for my sister who just had a baby. I love that you're always finding new ideas. Love the idea for the hanging handtowel. pretty nifty.
I'm glad you posted the link to the blog where you got the idea for my present. I had totally missed the part about hanging the towel. It makes so much more sense now. I claim preggo brain. =)
He he...and what's Sean's excuse?
Everything looks great, Jennifer! Like Liz I have not been sewing lately, but your projects are inspiring!
