FROM THE FOREWORD:

"The first models in the book are intended for expectant mothers; as the belly grows, projects for the baby are added, inspiring the desire to embark on the sewing journey into new family life. The design is deliberately classic, with a touch of retro chic. This delights babies and brings joy to adults, too.

If you follow the suggestions and sew the projects month by month, you'll have a personalized baby outfit by the end of your pregnancy that's not available for purchase anywhere. At the end of each month, there's space for notes on the sewing projects or little reminders of the respective month of pregnancy. This way, the book grows with your child. And when the sewing projects find a place in your baby's memory box, you can add this sewing companion, which your child can read later, when they're grown, about how much passion mom put into sewing the outfit for her bump.

Of course, the patterns can also be sewn individually. Grandparents-to-be, godparents, or friends will find a treasure trove of loving gift ideas for a new baby: from a quickly sewn pacifier holder to a practical play mat. Suggested variations complement each project and make this book a stimulating and creative companion—to browse, look at, and sew." (Franziska Lange)
