Happy Monday!
Hope that your weekend was lovely and you were able to enjoy some beautiful weather! On Saturday I went to a dear friend's baby shower and had a wonderful time celebrating her and the baby! I had so much fun making the baby gifts and now that the mommy has opened them, I can show you!
One gift was this cute name garland, that I used some pretty scraps of fabric, appliquéd her name and added a little hand stitching around the letters, and then sewed it on twine. Simple, but sweet!
Another gift was a baby quilt that I made using a charm pack from the line Posy by Aneela Hoey, which I just loved when it came out! The colors are so pretty together, and that mint green is gorgeous!
I tied the quilt with lavender pearl cotton in the corners and washed it to get it crinkly and soft, ready to be cuddled with!
I also made some pretty burp cloths using white flannel on the back.
And, the last little gifts were patchwork baby bibs! I used this template from Amy of NanaCompany and some pretty pink, yellow, and mint prints for the patchwork. These colors are so lovely together and perfect for a spring baby!
I just love how cute it came out!
And, for this one I used some left over prints from the quilt with some pretty vintage lace to adorn it. For both, I used pink gingham ribbon for the ties, and white flannel on the back.
These were so sweet to make, and I can't wait to see Naomi wearing them!
The day of the shower was also my friend's birthday, so I made her a "Bless our Home" hoop art. I am working on a couple for the shoppe, along with one that has strawberries, which I look forward to showing you soon! I was so happy that all the gifts were well received and loved, and I can't wait to meet this precious baby girl in May!
Wishing you all a most lovely and crafty week!
Heather, these baby gifts are just precious, your friend must be just thrilled. Naomi will be able to use that adorable name garland for years. Such sweet and thoughtful gifts.
