I do have a baby on the way!! And a new niece or nephew!
OMG! This is the coolest book I’ve ever seen. I can’t wait to get my very own. My little sister is pregnant and I want to spoil that baby rotten. My youngest is 20 months and I have altered 1 onesie. It was super fun and suprisingly easy! I would LOVE to win!!

I used to paint on snap suits for friends, but haven’t done any since having my own 2 kids. My 13 month old now wears a size 2T, so I’m hoping to use some of the ideas for t-shirts and make the snap suits for gifts.

I dyed the bottom half of the suit then added a pirate iron on for a pirate party at sea with Mickey! Can’t wait to make more I had so much fun on the first one!

The book looks great – not to mention the crafty loot. I have altered a onesie or two in my time. I’ve tried tie dying to cover stains. It didn’t work out too well. I’ve also made a necktie and fish applique for other onesies. It’s fun and the little ones will wear whatever you put on them – so the sky is the limit.
I have never altered a snapsuit; I would like to though. I have an 18 month old and we are planning on having another little one in the future. What an awesome book!
emilou84037@yahoo.com
yes, i am the queen of altered onesies! i tie dye them, iron on homemade and store bought appliques and have even cut them off at the waist (bottom) and added a skirt or ruffle or two. whoopee! your book will definitely provide lots more inspiration for all those gifts and grandchildren in my future. thanks cathie! p.s. love “creative juice” – watched it this a.m.
Never thought of altering a snapsuit…now I want to, those ideas are SO darling! I just had my first girl 3 weeks ago! my email: courtneycurt@gmail.com
I have a little girl on the way this summer. We have two boys already and are excited about adding a girl to our family!

SUPER PRIZE! I just altered a onsie for my 8 month old and a tshirt for my 1 1/2 year old for them to wear on easter.. its kind of like your “junior prom” one… I put a bowtie, dress shirt ruffles, and buttons on the little one, and a regular tie applique and dress shirt ruffles on the bigger one. I used red bandana fabric (because I had some scraps to use up) so I call them the “redneck dress shirts”

Lovely blog!
I’ve altered many snap suits AND have a baby in my lap as I type.
๐
I have altered a few snap suits, but never for my own baby. Hopefully I’ll have another one soon, and hopefully it will be a girl so I can make some of my own lovely girl clothes for her. Although another boy would be perfectly welcome (and inherit an abundance of hand-me-down clothes from his brothers).

I have altered a few with paint, but NEED to learn some new exciting techniques!!!!

I have altered a snapsuit. For my daughters baby shower she got alot of plain pink things, and the crafter I am I wanted to spruce them up. I added appliqued fabric…animals, crowns…(I traced the copies from coloring books).. and wah-lah she wasn’t so “plain” anymore.
this is awesome.. I actually altered before… when the twins were born cause I had a hard time finding matching onesies.. hehehhehe… look forward to the book..
I have altered a few onesies with the freezer paper stenciling technique, but am looking forward to doing more with the ideas from your book.
kdspringer@gmail.com
I’ve tried to alter a onesie, but it failed! I have a 1 1/2 year old and another on the way! I would love some ideas and learning how to do them!! jen.reece@yahoo.com
Just did a onesie table at a baby shower I threw for some friends. Half of them were totally not appropriate for babies to wear, but everyone had lots of fun making them!
cassie.whitmire@gmail.com
No babies on the horizon, but I once did a baby shower “game” where everyone got a snapsuit and was responsible for decorating it. We then gave them to the mom-to-be at the baby shower and she chose her favorite (who won a prize!). I tie-dyed mine… it didn’t win.
I have done iron-on transfers and also did tie-dye.
That monkey stamp is too cute! I’m so ready to alter some snapsuits for my 4 month old after reading your blog! I already have a copy of the book, but will definitely offer it as a giveaway on my blog. I’m eyeballing the loot! kimstoys at gmail dot com
I’m currently working on adding a skirt to a snapsuit for my baby girl! I would love to win this!

estherhuhkoi@gmail.com
I can’t wait to get your book! I have recently started using fabric paint and stencils on some onesies and shirts. My favorite is the stencil I did of our un-born baby boy’s nickname…”Awesome”!

thanks for the great ideas.

Those are the cutest onesies. I don’t have any babies on the way but these would make the greatest gifts. Pleaes enter me. Thank you.
Well, I printed up a bunch of images in order to embellish a onesie…but never actually did it! I have to say, looking at the pictures, I’m inspired to go for it!
While I am not expecting a baby myself, my cousin is pregnant with twin girls and ready to pop them out any second, and a friend is pregnant with twin boys and currently working hard to keep them in. April is likely going to be a busy birthday month in years to come!
Thanks for the generous offer and I’m looking forward to the book!
When my kids were young I loved altering their onsies – but now I am going to be a grandmom for the first time and would love to do that for my first grandchild – what a great giveaway~!~
These would make great gifts for some neices who are expecting their first baby and for my grandson. Love your stuff, Cathie.

YES I did an iron on transfer for my grandson when he was born. Hid dad was in Irag so his hospital pics were him in a camo hat and a onsie with daddy in his uniform on the front. And he was laying on a flag blanket. It was aweome kbrees3@yahoo.com
I am a new grandmother to a beautiful little girl, and want to be able to create tons of cute outfits for her to grow up in. This sounds interesting to me, even tho I’ve never altered a onesie before. I’d love to try my hand at it, and to spread the news to others that it is easy to do! (I’m assuming)
dianneu22@hotmail.com
For my baby shower in March 2009, my friend used fabric markers to decorate onsies for my little one. It was cool because they were all different sizes so the baby can still wear some of them now.

Yes, I’ve altered a snapsuit. I did an iron-on transfer that said, “My dadda plays bass in the band” and the another one that said, “Band Roadie.” I made a matching t-shirt for myself, too.

I have altered snapsuits many times. My fav was at a baby shower and we had everyone decorate one for the new mom as a gift. Everyone had a great time doing it and the mom enjoyed getting to keep them as a remembrance item. I also have a new niece on the way in July. My sister and I both love to create and are looking forward to having another little girl to design for.

One of my best friends got his wife knocked up. As a baby shower activity, a lot of us “designed” snapsuits with stamps and free hand “art”. I actually got the privilege of seeing my wee nephew all decked out in the suit I’d painted!
As a matter of fact, I DO have a baby on the way! A little boy due in August. Can’t wait to make something adorable for him.
pieguru@gmail.com
I don’t have a baby on the way, but I am surrounded by new babies, people who are trying to get pregnant, and chubby-cheeked urchins begging for cool snapsuits.
We have two new babies and a need for creativity. ๐ Love your blog and the great ideas.
My four month old came into this world as a ten pound chunk. Now he’s a 22 1/2 pound chunk. I love making things for him! He grows so fast it’s cheaper if I can do it myself!
