Toy Tool Belt

I made Silas a tool belt for Easter {I decided that handmade gifts were going to be what the little ones got, instead of the best Traxxas RC cars or candy}.  I’ve had this Ten Little Things by Jenn Ski for Moda fat quarter for way too long, and it seemed like the perfect piece for a tool belt.

I also used some Moda Crossweave in Gray for the background {I think Moda’s new linen would work great too!}  The tool belt measures 10″ wide by 6″ tall, then I used some bias tape for the belt.  I actually think I’m going to change it out for some Moda Bella Leaf, as the bias tape was a little too narrow for the buckles.  Oh, and these center release buckles are my favorite for kids things, as my little ones can undo them on their own!

Here’s my happy little builder too! If you’re looking to make a tool belt for your little one, I found this post full of tool belt tutorials too.

Now that things have quieted down a bit, I’m hoping to get some more sewing done through the rest of the weekend, especially some bee block catching up.  Oh, and I’ve posted a little giveaway on Instagram, if you’re a follower over there, feel free to enter.  If you don’t Instagram, don’t worry, there will be a new blog giveaway soon!
