makin'it in the mommyhood - peekaboo bonnet


oh my gosh ladies, i love this pattern...just sayin.  there is something so irresistible about a little girl in a bonnet.  never mind an adorable and reversible peekaboo bonnet.

when you add some piping....


fun fabrics...


and might i say a cute as a button toddler or baby....i mean honestly...how can you resist this???  she knows she's cute...lol...


and you've got a winner in my book!  my fabulously talented, funny and oh so sweet bloggy pal rae of "made by rae" is the creator of this awesome pattern and i give it two thumbs up.  the possibilities of this hat are endless too.  the instructions were clear, concise and easy to follow.  the pattern also covers sizes newborn all the way till a size Child Large which I'm guess is 6/7!!  mackenzie wants one now too!


i don't recommend making it when extremely sleep deprived though..hahaha, i don't know how many times i mixed my fabrics up but this one shown today is my 2nd bonnet i've made (i made another one in the 0-3mths size as a baby gift - friggin adorable when so tiny!) and i think i'll be making a lot more in my future.



you can get your hands on a copy of the peekaboo bonnet here over on made by rae.  tell rae i sent ya :)


thank you for all the kind bday wishes you have all been sending me today.  you guys are the best!!!  luv ya!!!  you guys are soooooo sweet.  i really do appreciate you thinking of me so thank you again :)

i'm going sewing machine shopping today so hopefully i'll be bringing home a new baby today!  i'm leaning towards a pfaff at the moment but i'm nervous though, it's rather silly but it's a lot of moula and i always get really nervous when i have to spend a lot of money.  i'll be sure to keep you all posted.

what have you been making lately that you loved?  have you made a bonnet too?  what's your fave baby hat pattern to make?

P.s. fabric was from on our my fab sponsors - Crafty Girls Workshop.  Check them out!
