Craft update

A little craft update since I can’t sleep (again). As you know, my nephew Brady was born a couple weeks ago, and I embroidered his name on a (decorative, not functional) bib. I’ve done this for many of the special kids in my life. Here’s Brady’s:

Not my best work, but those bibs are hard to work with.

Also, I finished my dad’s christmas gift, and now that he’s opened it, I can share:

I think he liked it. The idea was to spend no more than $4.44 on a gift, and since I had all the materials for this on hand – fabric, embroidery floss, frame – it was basically free.

Next I’m working on some gifts and some decorative stuff for the wedding. And eventually the “Unity Quilt” of course.

About Shannon

I'm Doahleigh. Pronounced doe-uh-lee. I'm 29, I'm married to the Giraffe, and I'm a recent cat lover. Strike that. I love one cat, that's it. I don't have kids, and I still have no idea what I'm doing with my life. I'm often pretty witty and sarcastic though. So there's that.
