Camera Strap Cover Tutorial

As of yesterday I'm officially 9 months pregnant!

I have 26 (+/-) days until I meet my son. Needless to say I've been keepin myself busy, I think in an attempt to occupy my mind so the days don't draaaag on. Since starting sewing this is defiantly the most I have ever sewn. I'm doing something everyday or every other day. A tunic for my daughter, a fabric storage bin, patches on my Hubbs pants (which I never do), a pair of baby pj pants. If you follow me on Instagram you already know that though haha. (my name on there is audriellew)

So today while I was thinking about the things I should put in my hospital bag and remembered my camera I decided it was time to sew a camera strap cover for it. I've wanted to for like 2 years but today I finally got around to it. Refer back to the keeping myself busy part.

So after looking on Pinterest I came across this tutorial by Sew Caroline

It was a fast and easy sew, which is basically the only kind I do haha.

I did alter it to include an elastic strap for holding my lens cover so I can quit holding it in my front teeth while I take photos haha. I didn't use interfacing either, I just used some thick material I had on hand. Also the Pom Pom flower I made to be detachable by just securing it with a safety pin. I can see it getting dirty fast. Here's my "No Sew Pom Pom Tutorial" also.

Happy sewing!

DIY Fall Family and Maternity Photos

So our fall pictures took about 10 minutes, 15 tops to take. Basically that's how long my daughter/husband lasted. At least we got that long haha. She was whining because she just woke up and kept getting pissed when I would have her stand anywhere but right next to us. There are tears in her eyes in most the shots but I'm still glad we did them. In five years all that will be forgotten.

So here are some of our DIY Family/Maternity Pictures, tripods are amazing!

Oh what a cute shot...

Oh wait the sono picture was just covering her crying face.

She was mad because she thought she wasn't in the picture...

Here is my absolute favorite shot. The last pose we took. My husband took this for me.

I cant decide if I like the B&W one or Color better

Hope this gave you some ideas on how to save money on Family pictures!

I Dream of Baby

The title of this post is the exact name of a "secret" board I constantly pin to on pinterest. I do exactly that...constantly. My one and only child is closer to 3 then she is to 2 and the beautiful urge/longing/obsession/crazy to make a human being that has 1/2 my genetic code has set in...more like bit down and wont let go. Honestly it hit when my daughter was around 13-16 months :) and I don't think it was a coincidence that she (chose) to stop nursing around that time. Well since I'm obsessing I thought I might as well make it useful since I wont be having a baby in the near-near future....
