Another Nursery Project

When I first found out I was pregnant I started looking @ every nursery blog, pic, website I could find and then on one of the regular blogs I read I found this awesome sign from Crap I've Made and I couldn't wait to find out what "flavor" of baby we were having so I could make one!! Yesterday I finally got it done!! And I love, love, love it!!!

This is the finished product, yes, i realize it needed to be ironed which i did but can't find the better pic.

materials used:
empty frame
paint
fabric
cutout letters (I just used my computer)
sewing machine
thread
ribbon
hot glue gun

So first I had to paint the frame, I found this really pretty green @ hobby lobby.
While the frame was drying I started on the inside. I had a really pretty plain lavender fabric that I decided to use as the backing. I made crib sheets a few months ago so i decided to use that same fabric to make the letters! (cute crib sheet fabric eh?)
After I decided which letters for which fabric I traced then on the fabric and cut them out. Easy so far huh?
After I positioned the letters on the lavender fabric "just right" I straight stitched them on.

After the frame was dry I hot glued the pink ribbon the edge just inside so that it poked out on the outside of the glass! Hard to explain but it looks cute. Then I just put the whole thing together.

It was a fun project and turned out just how I wanted it!! I'll have to post a pic of it on the wall in little Lucy's room.
