Back in March I announced that I was going to be an Aunt. No the precious child has not arrived yet but she will be here soon!!! I also announced then that I was going to make her a baptismal/christening gown. That has (finally) arrived! It took me several months because I'm a dreadful procrastinator but it is completed. Knowing how much I procrastinate I made my deadline to have it finished the day of my sister-in-law's baby shower so I wouldn't be finishing it up as she was delivering the baby. Naturally, I finished it the day of her baby shower. I'm excited about how it turned out but it burned me out from crochet for a little while I think. The baby shower was absolutely splendiferous. It had a book theme naturally and I helped organize a mad libs game with classic children's stories that was fun.
Now I'm just eagerly awaiting the birth of my FIRST NIECE!!!! :)))))))

Final note: If you're interested
THIS LINK is for the pattern. It's a free pattern and while it was challenging in parts it's a doable pattern and obviously has gorgeous results.

What a beautiful gown! It will really be a treasured heirloom. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful! Is that broomstick lace? I made a blanket with that once. A blanket that I suddenly remembered and now have no idea where it is... Great job!
ReplyDeleteNo it is actually just basic baby yarn.
DeleteLois that is gorgeous!!! And congratulations to you all.
