Baby goodies

Jen received her parcel this morning so now I can show you what was in it! I had made a blanket for her first baby which my pal had found useful and 'O' now uses for her dolly, so Jen asked for one for bump number two. I thought her neat little bump contained a boy-not sure why so I made the blanket in an aqua colour. But when I got the text to say they had had a girl I knitted and sewed like fury to try to gt something finished in a less neutral colour. The little knitted waistcoat unbuttons totally flat so that you don't have to squish a wriggly child into it. I am particularly pleased with the booties which are made from a pattern I bought from Etsy. They go together really well and use up little pieces of fabric. I always love card making and enjoyed the moment when I could set down my needles and get out the glue stick to make the card. All in all a nice package but not half as gorgeous as my favourite little family!
