I made this farm set for my daughter for christmas, she will be 20months old.
It's all made of felt, the barn is a pocket which all the animals fit in for safe keeping, the roof of the barn is sewn down. The vegetable patch is 2 pockets so she can plant her veggies. The animals are the same on both sides so it doesn't matter which way they face.
It's around 3 foot x 2 foot

Thats really fab, I love it, what a great idea doing a diary

I'm thinking of just buying a large fleece blanket to sew as the backing xx

I made a quilt out of my daughters baby clothes. Just got the back to sort out.

I'm making a simple patchwork quilt (or hoping to) with my daughter's baby clothes. I have them cut out and ready to go, now what?? Lol. They are all different materials, some are t-shirts, dresses, fleece etc. Is there anything I should do before I just start sewing them all together?

Ahh thank you, thats a good idea 

Basically I want a nice easy fabric to applique with, I chose felt as it doesn't fray, but am worried about washing felt?

I'm using pocket nappies, they don't require a wrap/cover. They are washed on a 40 degree wash, with very little washing powder.

I'm buying some plain cloth nappies (diapers) for my daughter, I would like to applique some felt pictures on them (it will be cheap felt from local craft shop), just wondering would it hold up in the wash... think I may already know the answer. What could I use to decorate the nappies with?

Those pictures work and they are amazing!
