Baby L's Present

I love giving hand-made gifts. Especially little tiny pink ones! I had so much fun creating this set! The fabric was so fun- perfect for a summer baby. There are so many great craft blogs out there with wonderful ideas, it makes gift giving easy!
(I forgot to take pictures before wrapping the present- so I had to have the mommy-to-be's Mom take pictures at the shower.)

Heather Bailey's bitty bootie pattern, modified into mary-janes!
Tattered-rolled flowers are pretty much my favorite thing ever! And SO easy to make.
(I am trying to remember the blog I found the tutorial on- because you have to try them!)
I appliqued the front of the ruffle-butt onsie with an "L". And the onsie dress has a ruffle around the neck.
The doll is from a tutorial on www.60piggies.blogspot.com
It is very simple, once you draw out the pattern. If anyone is interested I have a drawn out pattern I am willing to share. I made one for Ansley before making this one- and she loves it!

With my pretty Mom :)
I cannot wait to meet precious little "L"!

PS-How hard are the little booties? I've seen them all over but been scared to try something so small . . .

Total stranger here, I have been following your blog since shortly after you had Olivia. Maybe through another NICU mommies blog? My 16 month old was in the NICU. Anyway, I love all the adorable items you have been sewing. I particularly like the Izzy and Ivy dresses you made for your girls. My question, where did you find the pattern, if you don't mind my asking? They are such adorable dresses and I love the shirred top. It would be such an adorable dress for my Paizlei.
