How to sew a car seat poncho with hood.

- How to sew a car seat poncho with a hood and bias tape (no fringe). This poncho allows you to buckle your child into their car seat underneath the poncho without removing coats as you get in and out of the car.
More info on this project is available on: www.diydanielle.com/diy-carsea...
Supplies:
-Fleece. You’ll want an inner fabric and an exterior fabric (if you live in a warmer climate, you could probably use just one layer). I could have used 1.5 yards easily for this, but I’d bought 2 yards to be safe.
-Bias tape: I needed more than the 3 yards that came in the package so expect to use about 4-5 yards. Or you can make your own.
-Sewing equipment: sewing machine, pins, scissors, and measuring tape.

This is the EASIEST way I've seen to attach the hood!!! Thank you!!!!!
Woohoo! Made one today. Once I rewatched the hood segment in piece by piece bits, it all came together beautifully! :) And since I'm horrible at binding, I just did a no sew finish for the bottom edge. Fits my grand daughter perfectly. Now to whip up a couple more for Christmas presents! Thanks for the tutorial!
Yay! :) Glad you were able to make it. Feel free to post a picture on my show & tell page. www.diydanielle.com/p/show-tell.html
read my instructions or suggestions above how to close in bottom
These boys are so cute and handsome when they grow up, the girls will chase them. Thank you for the poncho.
Thanks :)
Great tutorial!! I'm making 4 as we speak for my great grandsons fingers crossed they come out as beautiful as yours did! Thanks again and those boys are so cute and adorable!!! 💙💙💙💙💋💋
Thanks so much! Enjoy! :)
@@doityourselfdanielle thank you and enjoy every .minute with your boys ! Stay safe and healthy !!
This is the best car seat poncho video I've seen and I made 3. Good job Danielle!! Thank you
Glad I could help! :)
Love u video!! I made my first one and I actually pinned the 2 circle pieces together, sew on the hood and went back and tucked in the front raw edges and it came out fine. U do have to work a little bit smoothing out where the hood meets the raw edges for a smoother look. Using the cd as a marker for the neckline is a perfect size for kids!!
So glad you were able to make it. Feel free to post a picture on my show & tell page. www.diydanielle.com/p/show-tell.html
Great job Mom! This grammy has made 6 of these and I'm starting on number 7 now.
Awesome!
Omg I absolutely love your vid, I'm a mom of 2 and you are an inspiration for me ,just starting and my boys are super excited!
Aw, thanks for your kind words
adorable kids n love the ponchos.
Thanks!
I like your video. I relate so much to this when I'm trying to work on a project around my kids.
There's a video somewhere with Bloopers of my kid picking his nose during me videoing. Can't remember which one, but it's my favorite hahaha.
I feel like I get this little panicky tone to my voice for some parts like... phew... lets keep it together.
DIYDanielle haha believe me I do the same thing 🤣it was a really good tutorial. I wish I could show you the poncho I made using your tutorial! It turned out amazing!
I was about to say the same! Subscribing!
@@blessedlilyacres8674 Feel free to share in our Facebook group, Stuff Mama Makes. We have a monthly contest. :)
I think I’ll make mine a little different but once my taxes come through I’m so ready to make a few maybe more as birthday gifts. But definitely two for my daughter(she goes to grandmas some weekends and it would be easier to have two) and one for my niece!
YAY!!! Best one yet!!! You speak and work like I do!!! NOT in geometry for the neck hole REALLY!?!?!?!?! LOL THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for sharing!!!!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed :)
Thank you so much. I understand how to put it together but would you share you pattern for the hood please.
It's on my blog, but you can also just trace a hood that currently fits your child. Less printing. :)
I'm going to make one for my 1 year old. I hate taking his coat on and off but safety first
Good luck :) I love doing custom fabrics to make them. It's so much fun.

Great video....THANKS !! Your boys are way too cute !!
Thank you :)
you are doing it the hard way; b-4 you sew hood on, put both circles right sides together; sew the bottom all around;,turn to right side; also u are making neck opening way to big; it should be closed. not so big that kid can climb through. go watch how others are doing it; maybe that will help. hope this makes it easier for you
What other fabric can use for the lining besides fleece?
I made one of these for my 1 year old. Now my 11 year old wants one. Do you have any suggestions on how I can make the hood her size? Thanks!
just take a hooded sweat shirt of hers and trace the hood to make a pattern. the neck hole will be the same as the sweatshirt. that is what I did.
I live in Wisconsin. Would you have your kids wear just this? Is it just for when they are in the car, or would you put it on them inside and have them wear it on the way to the car?
It's for back and forth to car :) Mine take it off as soon as the car warms up. I wouldn't necessarily want them playing in snow in this in 10F weather. It does the trick for shorter periods outside. Running into grocery store. If it gets really cold there, I bet you could make these thicker.
Hi!! Thanks for sharing! Do you think it would work if you sewed the two circle portions right-sides together and then turned it inside-out before adding the hood?
That would leave raw edges (from the hood) which won't look nice. HOWEVER... you CAN put your interior fabric inside the exterior fabric, then sandwich the hood pieces between. Then you can just fold over the edges on both the interior/exterior fabrics and sew around to attach the hood. That's how I did it for my first poncho and I found it difficult. I should've tried it on one of the ponchos this time just to see which I thought was easier.
Or you COULD do it like you said and finish the edges on your hood before hand. Then sew your hood on. Hm... good thought there. Might be a bit easier too!
DIYDanielle do you mean finish off the bottom of the hood and attach it to the inside of the neck hole?
Finish off the bottom of the hood, then just sew it onto the finished edges of the neck hole.
OR alternatively, sandwich the hood between the unfinished neckhole, fold over the edges around the neck hole so they look hemmed and top stitch. It's a bit unwieldy to do like that though.
Sorry to be annoying! When you sew the inner and outer portions of the hood together, do you leave a seam allowance at the bottom to be able to sew it to the inner and outer poncho layers?
Can you re shoot the part where you put the inner hood and lining right sides together? It is shot off camera, and THAT IS WHERE O AM LOST
What are the dimensions for the hood to cut them out of the other fabric? I saw the stencil but not the number. Maybe I missed it too?
Trace a hood from another jacket you have :) That works the best!
what is the templet you use for the hood ans the measurement
Sorry I didn't see the comment earlier... not sure where RUclips was hiding it. :(
Did I miss the pattern/size of the hood Danielle?
Can you use ribbon instead of bias tape?
You could probably fold a wider ribbon around the bottom instead of bias tape. Just make sure the ribbon can be laundered.
So much close up so is hard to see the little details and how you got that far but, thank you!
What is the hood size?
But where do I get the pattern for the hood?
attaching the inner part of the hood is making zero sense to me :(
I tried to get your pattern and it wasn't sent to my email for subscribing.
Check the spam folder. :) Or send me an email at danielle@diydanielle.com!
Let the dog be in the videos too.
My white backdrop says no! LOL
Can’t see what your doing
