    Someone asked member to post pics of diaper bags we have made. I started this one around New Years, but it got back-burned for more urgent projects. Now the baby is here, so needed to finish.

    The mom picked jungle animals for her nursery. I couldn't find quilted fabric I liked, so quilted my own. Used a messenger bag pattern, and added many pockets. Was quite time consuming, but I finally finished. Also made a tummy time blanket, a changing pad and some burp cloths. Added a book, diaper ointment, diaper wipes, and a toy. Now to get it delivered! Maybe this weekend if we don't get another huge storm like they are predicting.

    TFL, enjoy and have a great weekend. I will be sewing, not watching football!

    My 15 y/o sewing student helped piece the blanket, used minky for the backing. It's washed out in the pics, really light yellow.

    That is fabulous! I love all the pockets, and the modern style.

    What is PLU fabric?

    I'm going to try to make a diaper bag this weekend for my DD.
