Mom tested, baby approved: 20 ways to sew for Baby (+ giveaway!)

Today is all about cute babies. And fun sewing. And fun sewing for cute babies.

Sewing for baby--Super Bibs
“Super Bibs” from
Baby Says Sew

Baby Says SewAs a mom to a three-year-old and a baby born in March, Rebecca Danger is smitten with her new role. Already a three-time bestselling knitting-book author, her little ones inspired her to return to her sewing roots. In her new book Baby Says Sew, this creative mom shares 20 sweet toys, garments, and nursery essentials that have been tested and approved by her toddler son—and are now going through a second round of tests by her brand-new baby.

Projects to sew during naptimeTrue to a mommy mindset, Rebecca’s adorable projects are not only quick to sew; they’re also intentionally budget friendly. And no need to stress about time to make these items: each is rated by how many of Baby’s naptimes it will take to create. How handy is that?

Plus…there are the awww-inspiring photos of babies.

Karen, our director of sales and marketing, couldn’t help but make Rebecca’s fun “Taggle Blocks” before Baby Says Sew was released—she ended up with the perfect toys to pair with a baby quilt she’d made.

Karen made three sizes of blocks; the largest was made from the pattern in

  • These are darling projects indeed! We have a cute adorable granddaughter born July 2 of this year. I love sewing for her. I am making a banner for her room now from Urban Zoologie fabrics. Made her a mobile and burp cloths. Next would love to sew up those pretty towels, cute blocks or turtles! She is ready for bigger bibs too! those leg warmers are adorable too!
    Okay looks like this sewing Grammy could use this book!!;-)

  • My 3 month old grandson will need toys and bibs.. something new for him, not just hand me downs from older brother. Nothing wrong with hand me downs.. but every baby needs at least one thing that is just their own. 🙂

  • My granddaughter Maddie is 16 months old and the apple of my eye. I just love to sew all kinds of things for her.

    —Bridget on October 30, 2014
  • Our newest grandson, Andrew, is just getting to the smiley stage and is thrilling his new parents almost to oblivion. Being their first, everything he does enthralls them. And being their first, he needs many things to keep him warm, to keep him busy, to keep him clean, and most of all to keep him happy! We would love to make some of the wonderful things shown in "Baby Says Sew".

    —Janey on October 30, 2014

  • My great grandson Lucus was born May 1 of this year and is sitting up and starting to try to crawl. He hasn’t figured out how to use his arms to crawl yet but has the feet working. He is moving around on his belly and getting where he wants to go. Another few weeks and he’ll figure it out and then his parents will be chasing him a lot.

    —Elizabeth Starks on October 30, 2014
  • I "know" a very special baby, but he isn’t born yet… My daughter and son-in-law are expecting their first baby (a boy!) in January! My first grandchild!
    We used to own sheep when we farmed, so I was delighted to see the sheep mobile – that’s probably the first thing I’d make!

    Jannette B on October 30, 2014

  • Let me tell you about our new baby. My first grandchild will arrive around February 21, 2015 plus or minus the famous two weeks. I have seen his sonogram pictures we are now waiting for the final construction process to be completed. The fabric would be a great addition as my daughter as stated he is really a bouncing baby boy now so can you imagine what he is going to be like when we finally get to touch him for the first time. Thanks for the design it works with both boys and girls love the turtles just ask anyone. One proud grandma in waiting. December will be sewing for the baby event. SKG

The blocks are super cute with the ribbon tags! Babies love to play with those ribbon tags! The turtles are sweet, too! And the mobile is good for entertaining the baby.

  • We are not sure of the sex of the baby my niece is expecting but I do know that anything that I could make would come in very handy for her and the baby. I know that most of the patterns shown would be greatly appreciated by her so, I would love to win this book.

  • The daughter of my BFF from high school just had a baby on the day of this post so I’m hoping that this is an omen that I need this book! I had already planned to make and send a quilt but seeing some of the cute things here, I think I’ll be making a couple of things to send in the "New Baby Care Package" I’ll be sending!

  • I have inherited a new great-granddaughter, Mariah, 9 months old today. She came to us without any doting family, so we happily took the job. I have so many things that I want to sew for her, and your book would be perfect.

  • I always love sewing for my seven grandchildren. The youngest is just three months and the projects in the book look just perfect for a young baby!

    —Susan Stanton on November 2, 2014
  • I really need to start making things for my son. He is 9 months now, and by that age, I know my 3 year old daughter had a lot more hand made things! I also have lots of baby showers coming up and a huge fabric/yarn/felt stash that I need to use up. I really want to become more frugal in my gift giving — by using what I have to make beautiful home made things rather than always trekking out to the store to buy something made in China :).

  • i know that my brother is trying to have a child, and this would be great to have to make some future gifts.

  • I’m expecting a grandson in just a few weeks and my granddaughter is two! I have to make something fun for her so she’ll have her own present to open when her brother gets here and I would love to make the stacking turtles (I know he’ll be a little young) and the bibs for him!

  • My daughter is expecting my first grandchild on Thanksgiving! I’ve been itching to sew something for him, but didn’t know where to start! The Mei Tei carrier looks like the perfect first project. And those taggle blocks will be great when he is a little older – if their dogs don’t chew them up first ;->

    —Barb Johnson on November 3, 2014
  • Baby projects are the best! They are quick and are the perfect gifts for the new Moms and Dads. We also make quilts for the new Mothers at the local Children’s Hospital who are thrilled to get a new quilt for their new little bundle of joy. Thank you.
