My Quilted Napsacks

From December 2008 to December 2009 I completed 14 Nap Sacks for family and friends.  That is a little over 1 napsack a month.  I love making these things... the end result is so satisfying!

I can generally get a nap sack done over a weekend in between tending to the needs of my two little ones.  If you don't have any distractions, you can easily get one done in one day.  Here are some pictures of my finished Nap Sacks.






















You can get my free tutorial on how to make the version with Layer Cakes on the Moda Bake Shop for your friends and family.



PLEASE NOTE: The construction of these napsacks is my original design. Please do not copy my design without my explicit permission. Thank you!

    Angela, these are awesome! They would perfect for the kids going to sleepovers or when we head out to the lake! I see about 8 of these in my future....

    those are all so cool. I would have loved to have one when my twins were little.. I'm always looking for something to make for my nephews for gifts.. I think these would be perfect..
    I esp. love the doggy & airplane ones...

    The nap sack is a great idea. I would love to do that so when we have our nieces over they would have something more cozy to sleep in (other than a blanket on the couch). How would you launder them? Delicate cycle?

    The One and Only: They actually wash up really nice... just like a quilt. I wash them in Cold Water and then dry them in the dryer on Medium heat.

    Man, you are a mad woman!!! :) Just kidding, but really, each one is so cute. I'm impressed that you did so much piecing and details on them - not just a two pieces of fabric slapped together. They're darling. Great job!

    These are perfectly wonderful! I have three grandchildren who needed these just a couple of days ago when they bedded down on the living room floor! Time to get busy! ~Kelly

    Those are so cute and what a great idea!! Do you have a particular design somewhere or a tutorial? Does it zip up the side? They are very very cute! :D
