Buggy Liner - Homemade

This was my first attempt to make a buggy liner. I bought the fabric from Ebay, i found some lovely Micheal Miller fabric and decided thats what i would use. I had an old toro liner that i was going to re-cover but decided against it. these are the two pieces of fabric and the old toro liner. I can't remember the dimensions i used but they were a bit biger than the dimensions on a maclaren stroller. I sewed the pieces together like a pillowcaes. I sewed two pieces of fleece onto the material as a wadding. Once i had done all three sides i turned the liner the right way around (pulling all the material through) Once i had checked for holes i closed the bottom. Here is how it looked at that stage. I used two different materials on the one liner to make it reversable. Once the bugaboo Bee plus arrived i measured up the holes for the harness. I just cut them with a blade and sewed around the edges to keep the material tight. I also made three holes in the top and these fit snugly over...

Bugaboo Bee Plus 2010

It felt like forever since i ordered the new bee plus. I pre-ordered this back at the start of the year. I sold on all my other buggies and left myself with none to get this!!! I had to borrow my friends Maclaren while i waited. I received Bugaboo Bee plus on the 4th of April and fell in love. I ordered it in Bright Pink and its gorgeous. The new features aren't hugely different in appearance but make a difference to the functions on the pram. I'll work from top to bottom and add photos after. -There is a new click system in the handle bar. This means when you adjust the handlebar it stays where you put it. There are little grooves in the handlebar to stop it slipping. -The canopy, this worried me when i saw the photos. It looks small and not as nice as the bee but in real life it's not small at all. It covers the pram well and i love how it moves up and down with the seat unit. -The seat unit, this has been made wider and a new addition is the height can be adjusted by pul...

My pushchairs so far

My little girl isn't even 2 yet and I have had more prams that i can remember. I did take photos of some of them so i will upload a few and write a small bit about each pram. I didn't know the sex of the baby when i was pregnant, i wanted it left as a surprise. So I bought the prams because i liked them not for colour choice. I'll do them in a list as it makes it a little easier for me. Maxi cosi mura 4 I bought this while still pregnant with Caoimhe. It was a fantastic blue. This is one of my favourite prams. It has 4 large air filled wheels great for walking. The seat can face either direction too. It has a great hood and a lovely T bar instead of a bumper bar adding a bit of fun. Maxi cosi cabrio I bought this car seat because after alot of research it came out on top. It matched my maxi cosi mura too, it was the same blue colour. Quinny Buzz I did like this pram but not the little hard front wheel. I had the 2006 model with larger hood. It was a lovely pram with amazing...
