Baby gifts

I don't seem to have blogged about actual sewing for a while, but while I am sewing a lot, I don't want to bore you with constant pictures of all the crochet rolls, knitting needle rolls and bags I've been making lately! 

I love getting asked to make items that I don't make so often - especially baby gifts.  There is just something about pulling out pastels and snuggly soft terry cloth!

You may remember the pictures I made last summer for 2 sisters,  well, they now have a new baby cousin and I was asked to make a similar picture for them to give to him as a gift.  How lovely again to be able to choose some lovely pastel colours for a newborn baby boy.  Here is his applique picture -
