Carseat Cover

So after the whole RSV thing, I've been a little bit protective of Cailin... I really, really don't want her to get sick again. So, everytime we go anywhere, I want her covered up. I was using a blanket for a while there, but finally decided to just make a carseat cover--and I LOVE it. It's been so nice to not have to worry about it falling off/blowing away/becoming a baby doll blanket and getting more germy... I love that it's stuck to the carseat. So nice. I used a tutorial from A Wednesday Afternoon, though I saw tons more when I was researching it, and may have tweaked it some to fit my needs. I still need to add some details to the handle thing to make the ribbon prettier, but for now, it's wonderful and functional, and just what I needed.

This is a great idea. My mom would approve.

I LOVE it! Maybe I can rope you into making one for me when I have my next baby. :)

Thanks for the tutorial link. I am going to make one for my little sister, her baby is due mid may. Love the little purple flowers, they are just so feminine!

I totally agree. I wasn't too sure about the function of mine when I first got it (although I LOVED the look!) but I can't imagine NOT having it. A definite must.
