Kotori Kits

I was at a playgroup this week and got talking to one of the mums there about sewing matters. She has a lovely idea for recycling old babygrows. Most mums have lent these out, only to receive them back (eventually!) in a somewhat worse for wear state. Yet it just doesn't seem right to throw them out- there are always at least a couple that you have fond memories of.... So here is Jenny's great idea: Simply cut a large square (or several smaller ones) out of each patterned babygrow and stitch these together to form a patchwork quilt. You could finish your quilt off with a cotton lawn lining and a trim of bias binding or tape. I think this would make a cute cover for a dolls bed, but I particularly like the idea of putting it away until your babies have babies of their own! Thanks Jenny for letting me share your idea!
