First.timer · Feb 5th, 2011, 16:17 PM

OK Ladies! Ive been starting to get excited this week, and have a load of friends who are also pregnant (so i can sort of use them as an excuse). Ive been trying to come up with thinks i can make for the baby, partly for money saving and partly because i think its nicer

i have already made a baby sling which i love and and making one for a friend, worked out alot cheaper than the £150 designer one i wanted! anyone got any cool ideas? or doing the same thing as me? xx .............

I bought tome fab boys fabric, and since I have a 7 month old son, and a good friend is almost due, and I'm expecting again, I have made (in co ordinating fabrics).... taggy blankets, toy bags, wet bags for days out with fluff bums, a sleepy time blanket (cotton with a fleece back), and a dummy holder. I'm planning having a go at curtains for this bump's nursery too, which is really ambitious for me!
