Gifts for my brother and sister-in-law Part 2

I made a nursing cover using this tutorial! It was super easy, the tutorial was a little confusing but having seen one before I figured it out.

Gifts for my brother and sister-in-law

My brother and sister-in-law are having their third girl in June. I decided to get started on making gifts for them. This is my first project. It took maybe an hour, but I cut out fabric for my next project as well.

I used cotton for the outside and fleece for the interior. I cut the fabric approx. 13 in. X 35 in. Sewed the wrongs sides together, turned and then added a top stitch all the way around. I then put a diaper and wipes case on to measure the pocket. Pinned and sewed to reinforce the pocket down. I added a Velcro closure. I think it turned out really well. She can just grab it out of the diaper bag and have everything she needs to change the little one.

This is what it looks like closed.

This is what it looks like open. Just lay baby down on top and pull out what you need.
