I spy with my eye, two little baby boys that will love these cozy quilts. The bright one for little baby Gillespie. And this blue one for baby Pruneda.
This year for the Gillespie brother sister gifts we decide to hand make all the gifts and only spend 10 dollars on it. I had my sister in law Lisa. I cover a book of Mormon for everyone in her family including her baby that will be born later this month. Paul made this wooden holder for them all and I painted and stained it. I think my gift was perfect for her and I think she like it.
I covered these frames I painted years ago. These took way longer than I thought it would. but they are almost done. Now I just have to get Paul to hang them. I also need to put cute pictures of Gracie in the pink ones. In a year from now they will be all the same with one new born picture and their one year photo. My boys look nothing alike it makes me laugh.
Some of my friends and I got together for dinner. They all gave me The cutest girl things like dresses, warm outfits, toys and other baby things. I just have to show off a few handmade gift I love. Lara W. makes these hair things for flutterby.net. I was hoping she would make me some. As you can see she made me lots and I love them . Lori L. got a sewing machine for her birthday this year. She made me these cute burp cloths with minky and ribbons.
Paul said I couldn't buy another crib set. There was no way I was going to let my little girl be surrounded by trucks, trains and planes. Now you see trucks, and now you don't. I took left over scraps from other projects to welcome my little baby girl into this world. I only took a month of needle work. Someone said to me don't put so much time in just a bumper pad that is only going to be used for a few months, I just had to. I made it double sided. When the baby out grows it I am going to cut it down and use the panels in a toddler quilt for her. Its amazing those little scraps and time will be a memorable piece for her.
I have left my twenties in the dust. I am happily married to my husband, Paul. We have three kids, two young boys, Wyatt and Dean. I got my girl Gracie. We also have a dog named Razor.
