AW: I'm making 2 carseat canopies for my baby

I decided I wanted a carseat canopy so that when the baby is born in the winter it can help keep her warm . I was looking on Etsy and the cheapest one I could find was 20$ plus S&H. I love to sew, so I decided "I'll just make one." Well then I decided that it would be cool to have one for summer too, so I decided to make two. One of them is going to have fleece inside and the other is going to be cotton on both sides. The elephant fabric is going to be the top of both.

These are my fabrics:

  • Beautiful! I love the patterns. We have one with fleece on the inside and it's not been the best for this summer. The cotton on the other side is a fantastic idea!

  • My friends mom made me one. They are the best. Mine has little lions on it, which I love since he is a Leo.

  • Cute fabrics!  Our friend made us one when DD was born and I love it. We get so much use out of it.

  • R was a January baby.  I made one that had minky on one side and the shaggy fleece type on the other side.  I had enough left over to make a blanket for in the carseat as well.
