car seat pillow

made the little car seat pillow for Jack today. It ties to the shoulder part of the seat belt
so when he falls asleep he has something to support his head and not wake up with a kink
in his neck. It ties in 3 places.

So cute! Ava, what brand is that little sewing machine in the backround?

its a singer, bought it at walmart last year when I had to make the baby quilt and my good machine fell out of the van.
Needed something quick and cheap. $39 (if I remember correctly) and very light, its all plastic. However it doesn't sew as smoothly as my old one.
But it will be fine for awhile. Eventually I'll get a good machine.
Amazon carries them too..

Thanks. Not powerful enough for what I want. I'll keep looking. I do love that pillow.

What a cute idea Ava. That will also help Jack if he doesn't exactly fit in the car seat as well. You look as some babies and it looks like the seat belt will chop their head off. If it works well, you could probably make a pattern and sell it to new moms.
