Baby Legs

So last week I shared cards, so this week I'll try to share some of my sewing projects.


This is a pair of baby legs that I made from a pair of ladies knee-high socks. The one on the top is the original sock. It's not a normal sock since it doesn't cover the toes, it just goes over the heel. Weird, huh? No wonder I found them on clearance a little while back. All you do to make them is cut out the heel part with straight lines and sew the foot part back on. (If it's a regular sock, cut the toes part off and fold in half before stitching back on.)

If you don't know what baby legs are, they are essentially leg warmers for babies that cover from ankle all the way up the thigh. It's a great alternative for pants in the cooler months. Plus I've heard that it helps speed up diaper changes since you don't have to take pants off.

I can't wait to try them next winter!
