baby sewing

i was supprised when my oldest friend told me that she and her boyfriend were having a baby. (they must have been just as surprised.) i have known her for over 30 years. her parents and my parents (actually even my grandmother and her grandfather) are/were great friends and we met just after i was born. we have been seeing eachother not a lot but every time we meet it is just as if we have never been apart.

so i'm really into baby sewing now. they don't know if it will be a boy or a girl and this has a great influence on the colours. i have finally settled on green, yellow, and lilac.

the little on will recieve a baby blanket. i'm think i'll tie the quilt at regular intervals and will sip the machine quilting. that will give it a more fluffy finishing.

i am also thinking about little bibs, a little flannel baby blanket, a softy (see photo above), and some other things that will keep my mind spinning.

i'll keep you updated on the progress, take care t:t
