BUT it is half term and I have done DIY all week and caught up on work and seeing some lovely friends so I decided it was time to do some sewing. One of my very close friends is pregnant with her second child and what is really exciting it that we are all around this time, her first was when we were all at uni spread out over England, so we are having a baby shower and I decided I would make her a couple of bits. I have made her a bib which is exactly the same as one in an earlier blog and I have made a taggy blanket. Now normally when I want one of these for a friend I ask one of my lovely talented sisters to make me one but she is getting ready for an amazing holiday with her boys and very busy at work so I decided I would have a go at making one by myself using memory from the ones she has made me before eek!
I think it has turned out ok, not totally sqaure but I'm sure a baby will forgive me for that won't they??
It has a red fleecy back and then a range of ribbons around the outside for the baby to feel and I love the strawberry material so added that for a visual pattern for the baby.
