A New Addition to My Baby Product Line - Hobo Diaper Bags!


I am excited to announce that I am NOW offering Diaper Bags with my original designs appliquéd to the front. These will compliment my handmade baby blankets very nicely and would be awesome to give as gift set to an expecting mother. I will most likely offer complimenting diaper changing pads / mats with the diaper bag at a later date.

Each bag will be lined with a cotton fabric that will be Scotch Guarded and the exterior will either be a canvas, 100% cotton or linen.

Here is an example of the Diaper Bag that is now selling on my Etsy site. This bag is made of dark brown canvas exterior, lined with Amy Butler polka dot fabric, 1 interior zipper pocket, 2 sippy cup pockets, 26" canvas strap, and appliquéd with my Baby Sea Turtles design.

Approx. size: 16 x 20

Price: $60 plus s/h.

Panda Bear Cub and Mother Handmade Baby Blanket


I have completed the newest version of my Panda Cub and Mother handmade baby blanket. I am quite pleased with the outcome. This blanket will be for sales on my Etsy website at www.jgdesigns.etsy.com.

About a year ago I was watching either Animal Planet or Discovery Channel and I watched the show where Tai Shan, the baby Panda was born at the National Zoo in Washington DC. I was inspired and designed this modern abstract representation of Tai Shan and his mother. My son adores Pandas and I made the bear into his nursery theme was he was an infant.

My original design did not include the bamboo, but with bamboo being the only food wild Panda Bears eat, I had to add that element to the blanket.


I currently only offer this blanket on the lime green linen, but I most likely will offer more variety of colors in the future.
