Favorite Fabrics

These fabrics are from a group called "Having a Baby"... the only fabrics that I can recall, that are about pregnancy.

What could you do with them?

The third one, with all the words, has a lot of funny phrases... but I wish they'd left out "knocked up". It's rather ... ummm... negative. Is it objectionable enough that you'd turn away from it?

Very cute fabric, but very limited (in time) for uses.
I also agree 'knocked up' is in poor taste :thumbdown:

How about a lap quilt for a baby shower for the mother-to-be. She might appreciate a gift for herself. You could just give it to someone as a "congratulations you are pregnant" type of gift. I agree "knocked up" isn't very appropriate. Maybe you could cut around that word.

Maybe a scrub top to pass around the office to whoever is pregnant at the time?? LOL

I can't really imagine using that fabric for anything. The time frame that is is for is too short for me to formulate a plan and get anything done.

I can't think of any use for this fabric that will be fun to look at after the pregnancy is over.

I personaly and I say personaly don't find Knocked up too offensive..but then again each of my pregnancies felt like being hit by a mac truck..so i felt knocked up..and also knocked out lol..that fabric would make a good backing..or a cover for a scrapbook..

I'm with the other ladies, I really don't know what you would make with pregnancy related fabric that would be something you'd really use or want after it was all over. None of those fabrics look like anything you'd want a shirt made out of and that's the only thing I can think of that you use much different during pregnancy. Maybe some pj pants?

As for the phrase "knocked up", it doesn't carry a real positive connotation in my opinion. If someone were to refer to me as being "knocked up" when I was pregnant, I would of taken offense.

A scrapbook cover is a great idea! Mom could have pictures and journal entries for the baby to see some day. Genius!

Did you have a project in mind when you purchased it or did you just think it was cute and like many of us buy it because it was too cute to pass up? I like the idea of a scrapbook cover and having worked in several doctor's offices I can see making a scrub top out of it.

yuck, I don't care for them at all...just my opinion.
