This red and white package was sent down under to the lovely Alison and her newest addition that will be arriving soon. She just received the box, so I feel like I can show the goods now. . .
Here's a close up of the cards I made for her. A close friend of mine made custom cards for me after throwing me a baby shower for Delia (as if that weren't enough) and it was the nicest gift, so handy to have on hand and so thoughtful. So, these are for Alison (they are actually her daughter's, because every newborn needs custom notecards) In a stroke of genius, I let my off the hook and made nothing else in the package but the cards--that way it actually got to her before the lovely babe has come.
I am in a crafting whirlpool. I have about 5 projects going right now, which I really dislike. Mailorder, small quilt cards, a fabric banner garland for outside (this one really has me stretching my head) and a couple doll kits I've started--good lord. Oh, and in a fit of nervous energy last night I cut out a new tunic top for myself to sew. It is still in pieces. In that vein, I have extended the Tie One On August theme, the pinafore, through September, so we all have an extra month.
I hope to cross something off my list this weekend. Next week we are getting the house painted and I have yet to pick any colors. That kind of stuff. Okay,off to the park. for a play date, then lunch. I know I can finish that.
