The Cat in the Hat Nappy

I have been reading Dr Seuss books to Montana since she was a baby and Jacob has joined in aswell...what child doesn't LOVE Dr seuss (I remember reading the books when I was a little kid) So I thought why not make Jacob a Cat in the Hat nappy, after all he loves the Cat and especially loves it when I say "I'm the cat in the hat, there's no doubt about that"

I looked around everywhere for The Cat in the Hat fabric and the only pieces I could find where an astronomical amount and I wasn't paying it to go on a nappy (This nappy was planned before I knew about the Robert Kaufman collection that was being released, so no doubt my "original, OOAK" will end up being one of many.

With some nappy making supplies and embroidery thread and a whole lot of patience I ended up with this minky hand embroidered appliqued nappy.....






These photos were taken a few months ago and it is too big for Jacob, It fits him better now but it is still a bit big. It will be perfect size for summer when he goes pants free and I, I mean Jacob can show it off

Now that the Robert Kaufman collection is everywhere, I might have to get some and make Montana and myself a dress'and maybe some pants for Jacob.
