Mattel Booful Bare Bottom Baby Beans Bonnet Replica



I was tired of my Baby Beans not having his hat, so I made him a replica. If you are “sew” inclined, you can make one, too!

Bonnet Tutorial

1. Cut a piece of Cozy Solid Flannel 4.5 x 7 inches.
2. Right sides together, fold in half, sew one of the sides perpendicular to the fold using 1/4” seams.



3. With the sewn part on top, sew the bottom seam using your Rolled Hem Foot.



4. With right sides together, sew lace around front using 1/4” seam. I used 3/4” lace, about 10 inches long. Cut off any extra lace.



5. Turn lace over and edge stitch to hold down the lace.
6. Using your Singer 086742-P Ruffler Foot, with settings 1 (for every stitch), 1 for fabric amount, and your stitch length at 5.0 mm, ruffle all the way around the bottom. Do not backstitch because you will be removing the thread later.


7. Sew ribbon around the bottom where you just ruffled, just on the edge about 1/16”, making sure you also sew the lace. I used 3/8” ribbon 28” long, but I really wanted 1/2” but couldn’t find any.



8. Take out the thread from the ruffling that you did.
And you’re done!

Materials Storage Container with compartments Magic Erasers Scissors Ruler Pen Double-sided Tape First measure the compartment size.  If you are computer savvy, you can create your own spreadsheet using the measurements, and customizing it with your presser feet.  Or you can download the one I made here: pdf ms works Then cut out the magic erasers to fit the compartments.  I didn't need them for each compartment since some of my feet are pretty large. Then print out 3 sheets.  You will cut one, and use the other two for the lid of your organizer. Place the cut labels inside the ...

The Difference Between Class 15 and 15J Bobbins and Why You Should NOT Use Them Interchangeably

Backstory For the past week I've been reattaching all my photos to each of my posts on some of my blogs due to losing all my photos when I deleted my main account (read about it here .)  I ran across the Singer sewing machine reviews that I had done--mainly the Singer 9960 Quantum Stylist --my all-time FAVORITE sewing machine!  I had sold it (along with my Futura XL-400 ) 5 years ago and purchased a Singer Futura XL-580 instead.  (I figured I could sell two machines and just use one, so I wouldn't be using up so much space in my bedroom.)   Since the day I sold it, I've regretted it.  I loved that machine.  A while back when I had checked to see if they still made them, I found it had been discontinued.  I was just curious so I looked again and was surprised that they started making them again!  On sale for $500 on singer.com .  So since I had sold mine on facebook marketplace years ago, I was just curious if someone was selling theirs....
