Baby Bib

Friends we met in Florida last month just celebrated the birth of their first child. So I made a bib which will go out in the mail this week. The bib was a pleasant change from my over 1 Pretty Pumpkins which are still progressing.

New Finishes

June 4, 2007

These are my two latest finishes. Ephillium #2 from The Silver Lining is a gift for a friend but she is neither a stitcher nor a blogger so I am not too worried that she will see this here. In the original pattern there is a wide border but I have opted not to include it. The piece is quite large and was challenging especially the flower part. Also the design is practically all anchor thread...now I have the beginnings of a great anchor stash!

The little bib is for our dentist's new daughter. Very sweet isn't it? When I was working I used to make a bib for staff memnbers when they or their wives had a new baby. They all seemed to appreciate it and it made for a personal sort of gift.

Kathy has an interesting finish on her blog. Check it out!
