Now that Oscar is going down at bedtime easily and staying asleep, I have a little time for myself in the evenings. The other night I went to Ikea to get the Antilop highchair since Oscar will be starting solids soon, and of course got a couple other things that caught my eye as well: this super cute house print fabric, and a wool throw with a lovely graphic pattern. I haven't figured out what to do with the fabric yet - any ideas?

oh! love that house fabric!! you should totally make a bunch of little house plushies so oscar can build little towns with them and them stomp them like godzilla! oh, wait. that's what I want to do to them.
I bought the same fabric, it's cute!
I think I'll sew some placemats or make a soft city as a toy for children.
Show us your work!
I was looking at that fabric as well! I'm going to get it for cushion covers. Maybe colour the houses to make it unique :)
the house looks great for an apron or since you're having a baby around, a diaper bag might come in handy.
what?! i must go to IKEA. I love that fabric!! I don't know what I would make either, but I must go see it in person! I have been meaning to go soon... oh, just thinking, i think that fabric would make the cutest sheets, or at least pillow case! hmmm..
it will make a lovely quilt for oscar :)
you can make something for me! hahaha jk! :P

i like the woolen throw.
I really wanted some of that fabric, it looks even better in person!
Looks great friend!
Oh, maybe you could use the fabric for some soft toys?
I'm sure you'll think of something!

When I saw the houses fabric, I instantly thought PILLOWS!! You can never have too many pillows - and oscar can have fun playing with them :D more pictures of you little baby, please... :)
