Tea Time

       
I have been getting many requests for diaper bags...
Spring is the time for bunnies and new babies!  
So I went to my fabric stash and found this sweet home decorator fabric and decided to make the perfect spring set for the new mom and matching big sister bag.  I though you might like to see some of the construction...
"Mommy and Me" Bunny Tea Party Tote Set

Sweet Bunnies enjoying tea

 Enjoying veggies from their garden!
(Glad it's not my garden!)

      Inside is lined with a sweet white and pink gingham 
home decorator grade of fabric. There are
7 roomy pockets and an attached
key fob

I layer the fabric over fleece and a heavy interfacing...
then begin to quilt!
sew the sides together, add straps and lining....Vola

This sweet set is coming to Antiquebasketlady.etsy.com soon
Stay tuned!
