Eden's Easter Dress, which hopefully won't fall apart in the wash as soon as I attack it with some fabric glue. It's a bit big in the arms, but was very cute with a cropped white sweater and white satin shoes. Sewing tiny clothing is much faster and does not have to fit as well- I think I'd do it again.
Rykan was born last Thursday and so I hurriedly finished her receiving blanket. This project is very sweet and EXTREMELY useful so I try to make it for all the little babies I know. She was 7 lbs 11 oz, 1+ 1lb over Eden's birth weight, but I seriously could not remember Eden being so small! It was so pleasant holding such a tiny life AND I got to swaddle her :).
A couple from our church had there 3rd child and first boy about a month ago. We're collecting needed items and I got to make the basket, meaning I got to try out making a name banner. I used what I had except needing some ribbon. During their renovation, the Nacogdoches Walmart got rid of their craft/sewing section (boo) so all I could find was some expensive Martha Stewart ribbon. Worst ribbon ever!!! Oh well, it got done- all from my head, no pattern.
I love making handmade presents (as you can see) and whipped this together for my sister-in-laws birthday (it was yesterday so I can post pictures of it now). It came out a bit brighter than I expected and I'm glad it's permanent home is not my yellow kitchen. I changed the pattern a bit and I think it will work well in its intended home.
Well, I think that's about it! I'm currently working on a soft book for Eden, but it won't be done for a couple weeks. Speaking of the little sprout- I'll leave you with a picture of her:
