For My Baby (Paperback)

A title that shows you how to sew essential items for young baby's room - from a basic curtain to a fitted sheet for the mattress - creating a space that is not only attractive, but also functional and safe. Also included are necessities for outings - where you may need anything from a backpack to a carrycot - and special items for playtime. Make a unique tactile play mat to enhance your baby's sensory development, one- and two-piece soft toys with a toy barrel to keep them, or a rag doll that will accompany your baby well into her teens and possibly one day adorn her own baby's room. Practical hints and tips throughout are accompanied by advice on how specific choices may enhance your baby's sensory and motor development - an area that is certainly a concern for every caring parent. Making these practical items yourself not only saves money, but also allows you to add a personal touch. And it is so easy: Detailed step-by-step instructions with line drawings; colour photo of every finished item; suitable for beginners and busy working moms; full-size patterns included.
