Our best friend, Tony, from high school had a beautiful baby girl, Katelyn. On Sunday we celebrated her baptism in San Francisco and the traditional red egg and ginger ceremony in San Mateo. I knew I wanted to make something for her but couldn't think of what to make her. Until Vince reminded me that I used to make baby quilts all the time when we were first married. (Here is where I do a shout out to my dear friend, Kate, who taught me how to sew my first quilt! Thanks Kate!!!)
So, E and I went to the fabric store, checked out the pink section, bought some beautiful shades of pink, and I "whipped" this up the night before. Crazy, but it was done... from midnight until 5AM in the morning I chugged along... (Yeh family... maybe don't look too closely here, Emily will be receiving one similar!)
I'm pleased with it and I hope she will have a few fun moments on her tummy here or playing on those play things (what are those things called?!) or maybe have a nice nap/rest on the floor... or even have a few spit ups... who knows!
Here it is with the tea spoon I hand stamped for her.
It was a great day... Vince was the official photographer, so more photos to come.
