Every Good and Perfect Gift...



All babies are blessings, but sometimes when fears of fertility issues have been looming, God's gift seems more special. Let me put it another way: This friend and this baby had been prayed for by many.


Hint: The Preggo Chick is the one on the left. (Isn't she beautiful??)

I was so excited to crochet my first baby gift!!  I attended the shower on January 20th. I delivered the gift on February 3th. HA! Who is surprised? I chose to do a simple project in the nursery colors of lilac and sage green. Turns out the people who post things about quick and easy projects are perhaps a little more experienced than I. It's either that or they live in a different time space continuum.

At one point the whole blanket was going to be the little sea dollar circles that form the flowers. I am not good at math, but I figured out it was going to take a boat load of them to finish a whole blanket. So I modified the project in order to present it before her high school graduation. Also, I learned to do a shell edging that really was the finished it off! I really was proud of how the blanket turned out, and since I had all that "extra" time I created a head band, too


 
 
If I was proud of my project before, a couple of weeks ago I received a text...
