Ayla's Baby Shower Gift

 My brother and his wife had their baby girl, Ayla, a couple of weeks ago.  I really love Patty Sloniger's Bella Butterfly line of fabric. I made Ayla a crib size blanket, tag blanket, bib, and butterfly carseat toy.

We've really enjoyed(and still use frequently) the minky backed blanket that Michelle made for Easton when he was born.

I wanted the minky stripes to run lengthwise on the back of the blanket so I had quite a bit of extra fabric, so I made a tag blanket with the scraps.

I used some of the leftover minky and part of a fat quarter to make a bib. I used one of Easton's store bought bibs as the pattern for my bib.

I used this tutorial from Sew Mama Sew to make a butterfly carseat toy. I chose not to put a face on since it will probably get gnawed on quite a bit. Instead of using a chip bag for the crinkly wings, I used an empty package from Costco baby wipes.

 
I also started on a butterfly doll using this pattern from Bit of Whimsy for everything but the wings. I will be using the butterfly wings from the carseat toy pattern.
