I didn't think I'd have any time to make things, but I haven't had any editing this week. So far, I've made a cloth diaper cake and two swaddlers. Now I'm making a cover/liner for the $8 bassinet I picked up from my neighbor. Of course, now I read that AAP warns against swaddling...)
(
The diaper cake has 1 bottle of Burt's Bees shampoo and wash, 10 cloth diapers, 10 bibs, 3 onesies, 1 hand rattle, 2 wrist rattles, 1 crinkle toy, 1 squishy toy, 4 child-proof diaper pins, 1 pacifier with leash, and 14 bright links. I would have used handmade toys if I'd thought of it earlier in the pregnancy. :(

That diaper cake is adorable! So are the swaddlers! I had not heard that about the AAP, off to search...

How cute!

I keep reading your thread title as 'I've been crafting my first grandchild' and going :scratch "Well, that's ONE way to get a grandchild, I suppose..."

October 2 is the big day. C-section because of complete placenta previa.
