Baby cardigan and personalised labels




I finished Isla's cardigan, knit using Debbie Bliss Cashmerino (thank you Ana at Boladeberlin for giving me enough wool to finish the project) it now hangs on the hooks in the Nursery.



I recently got my own labels for my work, and have been testing out how they look on some of the items I have finished while here in Henley.


I have been making samples of items I will offer for sale (but more about that in the future).

Isla with Granny Margie (21 hours old), she is a little sweetheart, growing more beautiful each day. I will miss her as Mr. Margie and I are going back to Ireland in the morning.
Big Hugs,
Margie

Nursery preparations



Mr. Margie made a cute shelf for the Nursery (and some corner shelves), Mel found pretty hooks in Laura Ashley for the shelf that fit in well with the vintage theme. The bags are packed and ready for the great event.



Mel has all the linens, shelves, accessories, mirror,blankets, quilts, clothes, toys unpacked ( i even tried my hand at making bunting), waiting for the vintage style Mamas and Papas Nursery furniture to arrive next week.

I am knitting and sewing in between work and gardening. We have had some really lovely sunshine in the last few days and the garden is thriving.

I hope wherever you are in the world that you are having a good day.


Big hugs,

Margie

More Baby Crafts



I have been busy creating a cot quilt, bumper and pram quilt, bunting and dolls in ready for the arrival of baby. I love this work and have a wish to do it full time.


I based all the designs on the heart favors I made last year for Mel and Chris's wedding.
Leiny and Rommeij baked 100's of cupcakes and these tiny little cakes for our Easter party.

I am in Henley on Thames helping to get the Nursery ready this week, so more news soon.
Big Hugs,
