The rest of the baby things for my cousin...pretty cute if I do say so myself!
Bibs & burp cloths - I love this gender-neutral giraffe flannel! I love it so much, in fact, that I have used it a lot, and didn't have enough left to do 2 whole bibs AND burp cloths out of it, so I did the bibs with just a little applique and bias binding. The bibs are made out of a super-soft bath towel - pretty smart huh? Cheaper than the terry cloth or chenille at the fabric store, and much nicer and softer. I can't believe how tiny the neck openings are - I love little babies!!! We sat behind a little 3-week old newborn in church yesterday. I elbowed Mr. H...he just looked at me and said, "No." Can't blame me for trying. ;)
Improved hats - the bottoms don't flare out as much, and I got rid of the girly-looking ties at the top. I can't believe all it took was a ball-point needle that, to me, looks exactly like a regular needle. Amazing. You learn something new every day!
All wrapped up. Cute stuff!!! I hope she likes it.
These look so soft and sweet. I'm sure the hats will come in handy. What a wonderful way to welcome a new life.
