Another One Bites The Dust!

I got a burst of motivation and polished this bib off last night. Yay! The design originally had 2 flowers, but I decided to stop with one and make Baby's name bigger. Aesthetically, I just like it this way a little better. Besides, it was going to be a while before I finished a second flower at this pace.



Next up is a cute little kit that my friend Alicia sent me. I've carded the floss and will probably get started tonight. Is it just me or is this an awful lot of thread - and a lot of colors! - for a 5" piece?

Another Day, Another Bib

I finished this a month or so ago, and can share now that the birthday boy has had his day. This was for my nephew and his sports themed room. I *had* to get Boynton for this bib because Boynton for Brayden's bib just makes me happy. I ♥ alliteration. :)

I am also happy to report that the Double Secret Super Classified Oh So Mysterious project is officially a *finish*! I've snapped the pics, wrapped it up and will send it out tomorrow. I'm not 100% thrilled about the quality of my stitching, but it's not half bad for a first attempt at one over on 32 ct fabric ifIdosaysomyself.

Twinkle Toes

Just finished this little ballerina last night! This has to be one of my favorites of all the things I've stitched. This was made for my cousin to give to her friend. I think I'm going to have to do another one for my daughter! The only thing I'm not thrilled about is the backstitching on the skirt, which I think would have been nicer in a dark blue. If I do this pattern again, I'll change that.

This is yet another bib to be worn by yet another bear for yet another baby. :) Ah, Spring.

Lauren's Lamb

Today's baby bib is a present to a treasured friend whose baby turns one today. Mom loves Care Bears and stars and this was the perfect combination of the two! The only thing that isn't perfect is this darn lamb, but I couldn't find the perfect white bear to wear this special little bib.

I was also inordinately pleased with my wrapping job, so I tossed up a picture of that too. :)

Jungle Love

The latest projects, leaving the house today. (Hopefully.) These were made for a friend who recently had her second baby and whose first baby will be two next week.

I designed this as a nameplate for a bedroom door, but it could - of course - be hung wherever Howard's little heart desires.

The lion of backstitching fame and the bear who wears him.
