Retro Lily Tote

This was a special order for a friend I worked with. The material is really fun. The inside was a solid purple textured fabric that was really sturdy.

Green Flower and Butterfly Diaper Bag




This was a special order from my mom. One of her employees was having a baby, so she wanted to give them something original. I absolutely LOVE the material. It was very cheerful and fun. There are pockets inside and out. I also made a diaper pad and pacifier holder to match. This was a fun one to make.

Lily Mini Tote

This was made out of the same material as the Lily Diaper Bag. I used this one as a purse to carry just a few essentials for quick trips to the store. The brown material is a corduroy.

Lily Slouch Bag


This bag I made for my mom. I saw the material and just had to get it. It just reminded me of my mom. This design was one that I don't think I'll ever make again. The handle was a bit of a pain to sew. But the style is so cute. Who knows, maybe I'll try it again. The photos I have of the inside don't show that there are 3 pockets inside.

Brown/Yellow Lily Tote


This tote was really cute! I wasn't sure how it would turn out since the outside material is a solid brown, but it turned out great. I added a ribbon detail to the handles and the sides of the bag. I think that added a nice touch to the design. This bag was a special order from Amy.

Burp Cloth

Here is a burp cloth that my Mother-in-law had asked me to make for a baby gift. It was made with the same material in the Boy Blanket post. They actually are a set. The monogram is embroidered. It was very cute and really soft!

Lily Tote



Here is the first "Lily Tote" that I made. I liked the fabric, because it was different then what you would normally see. I used this one for my own use for awhile.

Diaper Pad




This is the diaper pad I made to go with the diaper bag for Kate. It is completely washable which is a must. There is a ribbon/elastic band attached so that it can be rolled up and kept in place.

Kate's Diaper Bag



This diaper bag I made for my cousin Kate. I tried a different pattern and made a new label. I think it all turned out really cute. The bag has several pockets inside for all those baby things and mommy things too! Kate loved it and said that she loved the fact that it didn't have Winnie the Pooh on it and that it would be something that her fiance wouldn't be too embarrassed to carry.

Cute Onesies


I have seen several of these onesies with cute little things sewn on them, so I thought I would give it a shot. They turned out really cute. I didn't get a close up picture of them, I wasn't thinking! I made these for my cousin Kate's baby shower. The pants that you see were purchased, not made.

Girl Blanket


Another blanket that has different textures. This one was really soft. I love it! The label is something that I won't be doing anymore, because of the time it takes to make it. It fit this one really well.

Boy Blanket


This blanket was so soft! There were different materials used to create a fun texture adventure for any baby. The label shown here was the first printed label that I have made. It turned out great.

Lily Tote


This is called the Lily Tote. It is a smaller sized bag. You can use it as a purse or a diaper bag. There is a cell phone pocket on the side and 3 pockets inside.

Lily Diaper Bag



Here is the bag that started Lily Kathryn Designs. I am a huge fan of stripes, so I loved this fabric. It is a very sturdy bag that stands completely on it's own. Inside, I included the key clip and lots of pockets! A great bag to carry all the necessities you need with a newborn!

Hello!

I have had so many people request to see what bags I've made and other fun projects, so here it goes! Here is a little history on how Lily Kathryn Designs was founded:

I have been pretty handy with my hands. My mom taught me at a young age to sew, knit and crochet. I absolutely love doing it too! I have knitted and crocheted lots of baby gifts and wedding gifts in the past, but never really sewn anything for anyone. When I was pregnant with my third baby, I wanted a diaper bag that was just what I wanted and original. So, I made a diaper bag. It was awesome. I received great feedback from the nurses in the hospital along with friends and family. Even out shopping, I had been stopped by people asking where I got it! This was exciting for me. During this time, my daughter Lily was diagnosed with Trisomy 18. She lived to be 17 days old and was a blessing sent straight from God. When she was called home, I realized that I wanted to use her name to label my bags and other crafts. So, this is how Lily Kathryn designs came about. Enjoy the pictures! Please leave comments and let me know what you think! I love to hear from you.

With Love,
