A wrap for Wil

I love these wraps - I wish I had one when my 3 were tiny babies.

Needless to say anyone in our circle who is currently growing a bump, chances are you will be getting one of these!

They're fun to make, practical and too cute. Thanks Anna Maria Horner for the idea! And I love doing the binding. I had never made my own until I did Matilda's. It's so easy and lots of fun! Now I'm looking to bind anything within arms reach!
The last two that I made were hand stitched together in the middle but I cheated on this one and used the machine. So much quicker (the way I hand stitch)!

This one will be off to Wil in the post on Monday. Hope his Mum likes it.

Now I really must churn out some aprons (maybe with some binding .....)
Cheers

ps Yes I am in love with that Pinata fabric. I tried to look for something else but I keep coming back to it. I should've bought the bolt!

A Wrap For Jamie

My little nephew is home at last after an extended stay in hospital (3months - very prem) and we're all VERY excited.

So a trip to Amitie today (I know , I know I said I would work through my stash but this is a bit special ...) and a wrap (as per Matilda's - see last post) to take to them tomorrow - with a multitude of gifts and cards from my 3 excited little "cousins".

Can't wait to cuddle the little man!

(Sorry the colours in the pics are shocking - taken using my phone at night. Trust me, they look much better in real life.....)

Hot Off The Press for Little Miss Matilda

Something hot off the press for little Miss Matilda that joined our extended family last month.



A little throw inspired by one found on the Anna Maria Horner blog although made with just cotton as I'm plowing through the stash and trying to resist the urge to add to it (very badly, might I add).

A subtle monogram in the middle to keep the fabrics together.

Cotton - I know, what was I thinking for a mum with new baby. Hey, ironing is an optional extra in our house and we love the crushed look. Hope Matilda's mum does too.

Off in the post this arvo.

Looking forward to a cuddle soon.
