When she was a baby, some of my daughter’s favorite toys were the soft fabric blocks my mother gave her. She loved the texture and the patterns, and I loved the fact that she could chew on them all day long without damaging the toy or herself. These were storebought fabric blocks, but Whipstitch has a tutorial to show how to make them. Each block is made from 6 5-inch squares, making it the perfect project for a scrap basket or a set of charm squares. I bet you have enough materials in your house right now to make a dozen of these guys. Get the tutorial.

Enter the Cocoon Cardigan, a free sewing pattern and tutorial that promises to be the perfect solution for those chilly days. In this review, we’ll delve into the details of this delightful DIY project, exploring its ease of use, versatility, and overall comfort.
Pattern and Fabric Selection: The Cocoon Cardigan pattern, available for free on the Sew in Love website, offers a simple yet stylish design perfect for lounging at home or running errands in style.

Thanks so much for the mention! We have two under 2 at our house, so I’m making these by the basketload (no exaggeration). So glad you liked them!
