These comforting little blankies are a perfect size for your baby to hold while nursing, or falling asleep. They are soft on one side to cuddle with, and have matching ribbons as "taggies" for visual stimulation and something fun to play with. Can be made to match your "Udderly Hidden" nursing cover, or a specific color of your choosing.

$10 each.

Welcome to mumDesign!

Growing up in North Wales, Mum learned at her mother's feet the art of fabric design. Whether it was knitting a scarf, sewing a dress or stitching up some trousers, Mum learned the value of hard work and custom design. She has brought this talent with her to the U.S. and to her extended family and acts as a mentor, hoping to keep Mum's Designs as a family tradition and keeping her Welsh background vibrant in her creations. The vision for design, the gift of crafting and the joy of giving has always been the passion behind the one we call, Mum.

The mumDesign (aka Mums Designs) team consists of Mum, Daughter-in-Law Casey and Daughter Nicole. Our Mission is to provide uniquely designed clothing and accessories for everyone. Whether it is a baby blessing dress, nursing cover for mom, a darling dress for your toddler, or handcrafted home accents, we promise to deliver the most beautiful designs with a little touch of Mum.

Why Buy Handmade?

Buying Handmade makes for better gift-giving.

The giver of a handmade gift has avoided the parking lots and long lines of the big chain stores in favor of something more meaningful. If the giver has purchased the gift, s/he feels the satisfaction of supporting an artist or crafter directly. The recipient of the handmade gift receives something that is one-of-a-kind, and made with care and attention that can
be seen and touched. It is the result of skill and craftsmanship that is absent in the world of large-scale manufacturing.

Buying handmade is better for people.

The ascendancy of chain store culture and global manufacturing has left us dressing, furnishing, and decorating alike. We are encouraged to be consumers, not producers, of our own culture. Our ties to the local and human sources of our goods have been lost. Buying handmade helps us reconnect.

Buying handmade is better for the environment.

The accumulating environmental effects of mass production are a major cause of global warming and the poisoning of our air, water and soil. Every item you make or purchase from a small-scale independent artist or crafter strikes a small blow to the forces of mass production.
