In my excited anticipation of Baby Boy’s arrival in April I decided to start putting together an outfit for him to wear home from the hospital. I bought some black-and-white striped ribbon and sewed it onto a white onesie with faint blue stars to look like suspenders. I paired it with gray paints, no-scratch mittens and a hat that I made last summer for Firefly. I also made the bow tie for Firefly for a photo shoot. The onesie and little blue socks are the only pieces I didn’t make. Nothing inspires me to sew more than a new baby! Next up is a baby blanket.
I love sewing for baby! I also made Calvin’s coming home outfit, I found the easiest cutest footed pants that I LOVE! I love the arm warmers. So sweet!
Ooh, footed pants. Good idea! Those little socks dont like to stay on. Ive made several pairs of baby pants but never footed. Do you have a link to a pattern?

I made a wrap hoodie to go with it, with coordinating cuffs
