On the 15th October, after arriving in Sydney for their first international tour, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced the exciting news that they’re expecting a baby! Soon after, Kensington Palace released an official statement which read: “Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Sussex is expecting a baby in the Spring of 2019.” Since then, Sew hasn’t been able to get enough of the royal baby info, pictures and pregnancy updates! So, we’ve decided to channel our baby fever into a blog post on the top stitchy projects to make for a tiny tot. If you have a little one at home or know someone who does, these adorable creations are guaranteed to be a huge hit!
