A pair of knee high socks=Baby Legs!

Knee High Socks

Baby Legs
FINALLY, the weather is getting cooler, which means it’s time to start dressing warmer. The days are still warm, but the morning and nights now have a little chill to them.

In order to still get the most use out of Baby C’s summer outfits during this weather transition, I decided to try to make her some baby legs. These are perfect to pair with an outfit without having to pull them down to change her. Also, these are great for her crawling stage. No more carpet burns. YAY!!!

I wish I could say I came up with this idea myself, but if you go online, you can find many tutorials on this. Here’s the one I followed. In order to make it my own, I decided to add hearts with Tulip 3D Paint. Which would also be great for Valentines Day.

I don’t own a sewing machine, although it’s in my plans to get one real soon. However, I do have a birthday coming up. Hint, hint to my hubby There are so many future projects I want to make that require a sewing machine.

So, I went over to my mother-in-laws to use hers and have her give me a quick 101 on using the sewing machine. The last time I used a sewing machine, I think, was in junior high. This project probably wasn’t the best one for me to begin to sew with, even though it’s super easy. I had to have her do it for me. After a few trials and errors, we finally got it.

Didn’t they turn out cute??

Baby C loves them!!! She just scoots right along. Of course, one pair isn’t going to be enough, so I bought some more knee high socks and I plan on making more baby legs this weekend.
