What I've Been Working On

My friend Julie is having a baby in August (yay!) and her baby shower was last Saturday. I had been planning on just buying something off of her registry, but then I saw what our friend Leah had planned! Leah made Julie a really awesome baby scrapbook so that Julie can just add pictures in after the baby is born. I decided I needed to give Julie a more "personal" gift as well.

My gift isn't anywhere near as cool as Leah's, but I really liked how it turned out:



In case you can't tell, it's a bib on which I cross-stitched the little dog and saying. I did get Julie something off of her registry as well, but I was really excited about being able to include something I had made myself! I finished Friday night, in the nick of time :)

Becky, any gift made from the heart is just as special as the next. You did a GREAT job!

Nicely done! You know, though, that now you've set a precedent, right? :)

Thanks, Leah!

Ang, I'm actually hoping to make it a precedent. I really enjoyed making that one, and I'd love to make them for others, especially now that I spent the big bucks on the book of patterns! We'll see :)
