These are from 'leftover' fabrics that had been used to make cloths for cousins.
And then I made seven more, made from fabrics picked out just for Annabelle.
Long story: my daughter lives 8 hours away and will not be able to come home for a family baby shower. Instead, we are trying to help her put her nursery together, via long distance. It's been fun, but I surely do wish we lived closer. I'm planning to make a trip to TN in two weeks to help her 'nest'. *sigh* She will have a smallish shower in TN next weekend. After that, we can get serious about finishing up her nursery and making sure she has what she needs. Truth is: it doesn't take that much to prepare for bringing a new baby home. However, baby magazines and the big box baby stores make people think they 'need' all kinds of expensive gadgets! Thankfully, our daughter is a simple kind of girl, who realizes these things. :)
I love the burp cloths Pen. They are great and you are such a good Mama!
ReplyDeleteI love what you have made for her. I'm thrilled for all of you!!!!
ReplyDeleteTesting my comments since I changed my email!
ReplyDeleteHave a great day penny.
Eight hours is a long drive, especially with a baby. But it is at least doable. My grandchildren live a whole day's flight away. :-(. So it could be worse. I do love the sweet fabrics, and loved the quilt photos on your last post!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it fun to make things for such a special little person! She will be surrounded by your love, even when you're not there.
ReplyDeleteThe cloths are beautiful!
