I have a new “go to” baby shower gift.
That would imply that I had an old “go to” baby shower gift, but I didn’t.
Anyway…
I made a set of 12 onesies. One for each month of the baby’s first year of life.
The set in the photos was, obviously, made for a baby girl.
I used vintage sheets for the numbers and ironed them on using fusible web.
{For the other set, which was for a boy and is not pictured, I had enough time to stitch around each number with contrasting thread.}
Then we put them in a box and wrapped them up all nice and pretty.
home is… a handmade gift.

What a lovely gift… homemade is a treasure! That’s how heirlooms get started.
I was thinking it would be fun to turn the onuses into a quilt after the first year!
That is the coolest gift! I wish I had a baby shower to go to!
Thanks, Tracy!
What a great idea! When my kids were babies, I took a picture on each monthly “birthday” – but I just stuck a post-it note to their chest! This is SO much better!! Love it!
Thank you. I wish I had taken a photo of my babies each month. Hindsight is 20/20, right?
A lovely and thoughtful gift! And it doesn’t seem that hard to do–perfect!
Thank you. The hard part was figuring out what size onesie I would need for each month! 😉
Great idea! I’m just starting to play with interfacing myself for some quilts, and I’ve seen a few different designs for onesies .. Love the fabric you chose for these 🙂
Thank you. I love using vintage linens in my projects.
They are so lovely – what a fab gift.
Thank you. They were fun to make!
Those are lovely
