Simple DIY Changing Pad Cover

So I haven't blogged since I got pregnant last July.  The main reason is that my pregnancy has been a bit tumultuous and my focus has been on taking care of me and baby.  The other reason is that I really have not made much new arts and crafts wise (just the same old crocheted hats and scarves and a few burp clothes) or cooked anything mind blowing.  Actually, Wes has done most of the cooking.

However, today that changed!  I embarked on a new project: a diaper changing pad cover!  While the tutorial is not my own, I wanted to share it because it is very simple.  I am not a sewing whiz and I was able to complete the task.  A couple of quick notes though: (1) I added an extra 18" of elastic because it was too tight on the corners of my changing pad; (2) you can see  in my photos that mine does not fit snug on the front because we have a strap attaching it to the dresser.  Click here for the tutorial.

Good luck!
