After missing out yesterday I was determined to at least see if Bella would let me sew today.
As soon as I sat down and started the machine she would speed crawl over to me. I would then pick her up and put her back on her play mat and sit back down again to have her crawl back over.
We did that a few times until the last time when she cried when I placed her on the mat.
I thought, fine, let's try the high chair.
That did the trick.
I'm fast realising she just wants to be around me. When I get too far thats when things go awry.
Everything had to be done in stages. From measuring, mapping out my plan, feeding Bella, nap time..
I'm pretty happy with how it's turned out.
The size is perfect even though I sewed a centimetre outside of the drawn line.
The only thing I needed to figure out was how I was going to do the "pillow case" insert.
If you look at the pic above ☝️ you'll see I've designated the pink fleece as the insert part.
Before I knew it it was 9pm and it's past Bella's bed time.
Tomorrow's goal is to finish sewing the other side, wash the covers, put them on the cot so I can figure out how I'm going to strap them in place.
At the moment ribbons seem to be the most likely solution. I already figured I would need to take some stiches out so I can add the ribbons which isn't a big deal ~ it's totally doable ~ in theory anyway.
