baby basket

Daughter Knit and Pearl received a commission
to put together a  baby basket to be raffled off
 tomorrow evening at a local event.
 
 
We sewed shoes, bibs, burp cloths


and a receiving blanket for the basket.
She will be sewing a couple of tag toys tonight to add to it.
 
 
We thought the fancy stitching
 around the blanket turned out adorable!
 
 
We even cut out vintage illustrations
 from a tattered Peter Rabbit storybook
 to make blocks for the basket.
 
 
Some mama will be lucky to win it.
