Handmade baby shower gift

My cousin is having twins! Eek!

I made this groovy little change mat clutch for her. Handy to throw in the pram for quick trips to the shops. I wish I had one of these when my kids were babies!

Pretty Amy Butler fabric


Opens out like this and holds a couple of nappies and some baby wipes. Clear vinyl easy to wipe clean.


And it folds back up like this...

...into a cute little clutch with a magnetic clasp.
The vinyl was a little tricky to work with as it sticks to the machine as you sew. A tip I read was to place some tissue paper underneath, sew with the vinyl side down and then tear it away. This worked well.

My brother and his wife will have their first baby next month, so I will have more baby projects to show you soon.
