Baby Crafts and Nursery

The Nursing chair is recovered in Cath Kidston material, with a little heart shaped cushion for extra comfort

I knit some Debbie Bliss fair trade organic eco cotton wash cloths and some women at my work made the pink basket to hold all the little necessaries.

I thought the Bugaboo needed a bit of lace....

Mel's girlfriends brought her this little elephant, among other gifts, at the Baby Shower.

We found this little pony head (it makes horsey sounds) at the local Joules store in Henley.

A bit of history, the Silvercross, a traditonal English and Irish pram much loved by Grannies and those of us (almost Grannies) old enough to remember them.

Another baby quilt work in progress, this one for the car seat.

The cot is ready, cosy and inviting.

The wardrobe full of gifts, family treasures and must haves.

Everything ready and waiting for this little girl, who like her mother and aunty will arrive when she is ready (Mel was 19 days overdue, Leiny was four).

More news when she arrives.

Big Hugs,

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

Debutantes

Presenting Miss Penelope Adelaide and Miss Beatrice Adelaide, otherwise known as the Lady Adelaide Twins. They will be Carol singing next weekend at Castlefarm, during our fund raising efforts for one of our favourite charities. I made them this weekend using the Tilde patterns.
