Back to the Grindstone

My baby girl turned 2 months Sunday and I wondered where the time went to. I was finally able to find some time to start sewing again. Here are a few projects I was able to create this week.

Brightly Colored Bag!

This bag I created for a friend's teenage babysitter who adores bright colors!

It has 2 center outside pockets and 2 pockets inside. I hope she likes the bright colors.

Sage and Brown Tag Blanket

This Car seat sized blanket pairs cream satin with dark brown furry fleece, I used the combination of sage green and brown ribbons. This blanket was a first for me, it is embroidered with baby boys initials. I do not have a machine with this capability but a shop down the road from me can do it for me. I was nervous about how it would turn out....there are some things I would do differently next time with the size of the monograms but I LOVE the way it turned out.
I hope Mom and baby love it too!
