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

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,

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,

Margie
