I am really on a roll these days. I finished {I only have to hand sew on a button, but I can't find a needle} the diaper clutch that I wanted to make. I will say that it made me mad and it wasn't very easy the whole way through. There were some bumps in the road for sure!
I started the project last night when I cut out and taped together the pattern. After I did that I went ahead and traced out the pattern onto the fabric so I could cut and sew today. Everything was going according to plan because Eden slept in today and I was able to cut out the fabric before she woke up. That meant at nap time all I needed to do was sew the pieces together. Well, that was until Eden covered her plate with ketchup from lunch with a piece of the fabric. That means that I needed to wash it, then it had to dry, then it shrank! Ugh, what a fiasco. {And for the record, I know I should have washed and dried all the pieces before I cut the patterns out, but I didn't.}
Anyways, I sewed it and everything ended up ok in the end, so I guess that's what matters, right?!

| The solid brown is what had to be eliminated from the patterns because of the ketchup. It's hard to tell, but the patterns are drawn out and I only needed to cut at this point. |

| All cut out, ready for destruction! ha ha |
 |
| All done. The button is simply staged because it needs to be sewn on, but other than that it's DONE! |
