Yesterday, before Bryce Eleanor arrived, I was frantically trying to get a gift bag together for her pillow and sock doll. First, it was just going to be a muslin bag...but then an appliqued "B" appeared.
Had to fancy that up a bit.Finally got it done and stuffed the gifts inside.
Amelia and Chris were going out to Chris' squadron party, so I got to keep Bryce Eleanor, who is sweetness with a runny nose!
"And prick it with 'B'/And throw it in the oven for Baby and me."
The birthday party is today. Amelia will have a little extra, unencumbered time to prepare, and Fee and I will bring the birthday girl in time for her to get dressed.
Sweet. Baby AND the B-Bag.
ReplyDeleteThose pictures of Bryce are amazingly beautiful. And what a wonderful grandmother you are - these girls have wonderful keepsakes. it's a very pleasant way to spoil them.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet...what fun! =-)
ReplyDeleterian - I love the softness of the black and white! It seems like the essence of "baby." Or toddler, I guess now, since she is perambulating on her own now.
ReplyDeleteACey - Thanks! You know darn well that I look for excuses to make things! :) I do hope some of them will be keepsakes some day, kind of like the Velveteen Rabbit -- battered yet loved; but I'm always looking for an excuse and a purpose to make handmade. The grands are just perfect for that!
Thanks, Debby!
