PEE PEE TEEPEES!
SO MEGAN TELLS ME SHE HAS A SPECIAL REQUEST AND OF COURSE I SAY WHAT DO YOU NEED SWEETIE! SHE SAYS I WOULD LOVE SOME OF THOSE PEE-PEE TEEPEES, OK, I HAD VAUGELY HEARD OF THEM , SAW THEM WHEN LOOKING AT "BABIESRUS" WEBSITE, THEY HAD PLASTIC LITTLE SHIELDS YOU PLACE ON THE LITTLE GUYS, I THOUGHT " I GUESS ITS BETTER THAN GETTING HOSED, HOWEVER I THOUGHT THAT CAN'T BE COMFORTABLE, SO SHE SAID SHE SAW THEM ONLINE, SO I GOOGLED "PEE PEE TEEPEE" AND YAHOO, FREE INSTRUCTIONS, AND WOW THEY ARE CONES MADE OUT OF FABRIC, LITTLE MINI PARTY HATS!!! HA HA... AFTER A GOOD HEARTY LAUGH I PRINTED THE INSTRUCTIONS AND DECIDED TO COMBINE 2 PATTERNS TO ACCOMODATE HOW I FIGURED THEY SHOULD BE MADE (IN MY WORLD!). SO TODAY I FINALLY HAD SOME TIME BEFORE PICKING JAE UP FROM SCHOOL AND WHILE MY BLUEBERRY COBBLER WAS COOLING TO MAKE A FEW. WELL A FEW TURNED INTO 5.. THEY WERE SO MUCH FUN TO MAKE AND SUPER EASY AND FAST, I USED CHENILLE AS I THOUGHT THAT WOULD BE VERY ABSORBANT (I FELT FLEECE WOULD RUN OFF RIGHT ONTO THE LITTLE GUY). SO HERE THEY ARE... GET A GOOD LAUGH... I WAS IN STITCHES WHILE I WAS SEWING THESE.. THEY ARE SO FUNNY AND CUTE ALL AT THE SAME TIME!
MY PATTERN AND THE 1ST CUT
PIN RIGHT SIDES TOGETHER
START IN CENTER AND STITCH STRAIGHT TO CURVED
EDGE THEN BACK AGAIN LEAVING A OPENING TO PULL
RIGHT SIDE OUT
CLOSE UP OF OPENING, IT DOES NOT NEED TO BE
THIS LARGE, I AMENDED THE PATTERN AND MADE
IT A LITTLE SMALLER, YOU ONLY NEED TO PULL THROUGH
PULL INSIDE THROUGH OPENING REVERSING AND IRON
CHENILLE SIDE
OPENING THAT YOU PIN CLOSED
FOLD IT ON THE CHENILLE SIDE AND PIN
STITCH FROM TOP EDGE TO BOTTOM EDGE ABOUT 1/4 FROM EDGE
REVERSE WITH CHENILLE INSIDE
PRESS WITH IRON
TOPSTITCH LOWER EDGE OF TEEPEE
INSIDE LOOKS LIKE THIS
I MAY SERGE THIS SEAM THE NEXT BATCH,
(MY SERGER NEEDED THREADING AND I WAS
IN TOO MUCH OF A RUSH TO THREAD IT) SO MAYBE NEXT TIME!
UP CLOSE!
