baby shower gifts

A coworker is going to have her first baby and she will be leaving on the 31 of this month. So I wanted to make a gift set of 4 burp cloths and 4 bibs.

These are the burp cloths

These turned out nice

I made 4 of them which was the suggested gift amount.

I should not have attempted to make the bibs just yet I was very tired.


The neck opening is to large and the bib is then to small.

I dont have any more of the fabric. So I will have to search for something different for the remakes

made 4 of these also. I am still getting the hang of the new camera so I have to figure out how to fix the orientation of the last 3 pictures. Tomorrow will be better.
I read a great deal of creative blogs and one of my favorite is homemadebyjill@blogspot.com She has some great ideas and helpful tutorials.

Thanks Jill

Thanks for the link!! Your projects look fantastic. And while the bibs look a little short to use for feedings, I bet they'd make perfect drool-bibs.

Nice job. :)

My discovery!

As a little girl I did not play with dolls, did not play house. I climbed trees and explored how things worked. Tried to make my bike do things it was not meant to do. My mother complain when I was a toddler she would dress me in frilly dresses to play and I would prompty find mud or dirt. My mother and father had a loving relationship but I really did not see my father much. He worked the night shift. I had a close relationship with my mother. She taught me to crochet and make clothes. She kept a beautiful home and was a great cook. I felt that my father did not appreciate her enough so I decided that I would not get married and deal with someone who did not appreciate me. When my mother died it totally crippled my father. I realized just how much he appreciated her. When she first died he would just sit in a chair and just stare for hours. Finally I started talking to him and he revealed just how much he needed her. Then I decided that I should not get married because I wou...

Till Then keep Sewing.

Today I have finished redoing the hems of two dresses from Old Navy for my sister’s coworker. I am starting on pants that my Auntie needs hems. Both of these items need 5 inches taken off. Short people, I love em! My goal for this week is to complete 3 dresses so I can be finish with my 6 dresses in 6 weeks challenge which turn into “Just complete 6 dresses!” These 3 dresses I have no idea about except that they will have matching tie for hubby. I am going to make them and hopefully he will wear them. I will not be surprised if he does not. My allergies are making it difficult for me to type. And I have a headache so I will blog tomorrow for sure. Till Then Keep Sewing.
