My cousin and his wife have a lovely little family, that recently grew by one adorable tiny human. They had their second baby, a girl. And one of the best things about new people? The opportunity to make baby gifts, of course!
These are the things that I made for Miss Lily.
I did some burp cloths:
An infant gown:
This was before I added the ribbon in the middle. At first I thought that I would just leave it like this. But I really think that the ribbon makes it just a little cuter...
(I don't know why it looks so stretched out in this picture - other than because it's just a quick snapshot with my iphone - in person it's a much more normal shape around the middle where the ribbon is...)
And a set of sibling shirts:
It had been a while since I had stitched a onesie, and I forgot how difficult they can be sometimes, due to their small size! I also did this after I had spent many hours working on other things, so when the little mistakes happened on the butterfly I decided to keep going and just make it work. I figured that tiny humans grow pretty fast, so I'm hoping that no one really notices my errors!
