Anyway, whilst I clean up my way overloaded hard drive in an effort to share some vacation photos with y'all, here is the gift that I made for my friends new baby. Yes, the special little one that was born more unique than most that I wrote about in an earlier post: To The Third Power.
I love giving girlie gifts that are NOT pink at girl baby showers. Don't get me wrong, I love pink. But it's fun to give something that will stand out among all the pink that is naturally given. Besides, I don't really dig baby showers in general because of all the ooohing and aaahing so this way I don't add to that reaction in general.
The material for this project was purchased on a whim the day after Christmas and then when this baby arrived 5 weeks early on the 27th I knew just what that material was meant for. I added some very soft white material and it became just right for a nursery that is done in a ladybug theme. I gave the blanket as the gift for the baby and the pillowcase as a surprise for the 'big sister'.
Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI followed the link to the post about her, and was touched by the beautiful poem her Daddy wrote for her, before she was ever born. What a Dad! She is blessed to be born into such a loving family.

Yellow Rose: Off topic, but for the record, I think your non-traditional flare toward politics is kind of cool. Don't ever be hesitant to speak your mind. That is what makes us great. Texas is a cool place. My son lives in San Antonio. Be well.
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful blanket. And I too went and checked out the link. love the poem, and once I read it I remembered it.
