Meet my first nephew!
We were lucky enough to see him twice the day after he was born, me first then I picked the 'big cousin' up from school and took her to meet him. She's a little overconfident, but a natural with the bubbas!
Finally knowing the sex helped too! I bought this pattern the other week, thinking something 'different' for his first quilt would be good. I found the fabrics in the stash, well, I had to go and buy more of it though! I only had fat quarters of the DS Quilts 'Aunt Edna' range from Spotlight; the trees are from forever ago, and the foxes Aneela Hoey.
Started sewing together Saturday night, and was 'blog finished' by Sunday afternoon.
Think this will crinkle up nicely. It's an old vintage sheet (of course! Suprised I didn't use chenille? I was!)
We got another visit this afternoon...Day 4. A tiny bit jaundiced, but he gave us lots of eye contact and a smile or 2...
He seemed happy with it!
I don't think I'd be that fussed if he wasnt at the moment. Mum loves it too which is good!
Oh, Henry, it's ok, the foxes won't get you! Oh, I renamed it 'Down the Fox Hole'!
I'm besotted.
