Pillow Case and Car Seat Canopy!!!

http://just-because-i-am-me.blogspot.com/2010/02/car-seat-canopy-tutorial.html

You gotta check this link out! That is going to be my newest craft project along with making a cute pillow case for my body pillow! I am so excited! I have all the fabric and accessories I need for both projects, it's just a matter of finding time and someone to help me since I'm not the MOST experienced sewer on the face of the planet. I'm headed home to visit my family this weekend so I might just make the pillow case thing happen then...we shall see :D
This is the material, buttons, thread, and velcro I'm using for my car seat canopy! The outside part that will be visible when the canopy is covering the baby is gonna be, of course, the zebra print. The other side will be this super cute pink butterfly flower print that you will be able to see when the canopy is pulled up. On the strips that hold the canopy to the carrier there will be 2 big pink buttons. One on each side. If you looked at the link, you'll be able to visual. I am soooo excited to have this baby girl already it's ridiculous! I will keep you posted on the progress or at least post pics of the finished project!

I'm going to be using the same zebra print that I'm using for the car seat canopy for my body pillow case. By the opening of the pillow case there will be hot pink ribbon running all the way around and then right in the center of the ribbon on one side I will sew three big black & white buttons: black, white, black. Awwww.....how I love zebra print! AND PINK! Pink and zebra go together like peanut butter and jelly! LOL!
