Comfort Cloth 2

I finished the comfort cloth yesterday. Last week I ask the mom recieving this for an old t-shirt from her and dad. I cut the sleeves off the t shirts and use them to stuff the head of the teddy. Then after washing the cloth, I wrapped it in the t shirts.
We had the baby shower today after work. It went great. They got several things they didn't even think about needing. Below is pictures of the cake, and the comfort cloth.


This is a close up of the finished piece. I loc=ved the colors for a little girl.

Comfort Blankie

One of the PA's at work is expecting her first baby. She already knows the baby is a girl. Which is helpful for us planning to provide gifts, but for me it takes the fun out of labor. We are having a baby shower this month at work.
As you know I am currently working on another outfit. I found this pattern and thought this is a great idea. It is knitted all in one piece. I am going to get an old t shirt from mom and dad, to stuff the head. I'm going to start making these for all my baby shower gifts. I will provide a picture of the finished product.
If you are interested in the pattern, I found it on ravelry.com. Publish by Frankies knitted stuff. The link is http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cuddle-cloth.

The Love Month

As I continue to work on my crafts, which I wish I had more time to work on. I will be working on my knitting project more this weekend. I am trying to put my priorities in the proper place. Right now, knitting is the least on that list.
This post is to introduct a new blog I'm going to start. With Valentines Day coming soon, I want to start a blog on Love, Marriage, and real life couples. I am still in the beginning phase and haven't even come up with a name yet. That will all be completed today. I will be discussing my marriage and the changes it has gone through.
I'm one of those people that doesn't believe 24 hours is enough. As a wife that works outside and inside the home, I have feel most of the time I have little time for me. This will be some of the things I will discuss in my next blog. I hope that I will find time in each day to work on my craft.
