What a boring title but since this post will cover my May highlights, it seemed appropriate! The biggest event in May, of course, was the birth of grand daughter #3. Proud parents, Jacqueline and JR (pronounced J R) gave birth to Eva Michele on May 14th. The happens to be Mark and my anniversary as well as Adrian and Brian's anniversary (happy one year, my darling daughter and SIL!). We are fortunate that Miss Eva lives within an hour drive and I get to smother her with Nana love at least once a week!
Welcome to the world, Miss Eva!
I spent a lot of time sewing, had a run on what I refer to as Hooter Hiders and so a day or two were committed to those. Tweaked and perfected, thanks to another new mom I gifted with some. Her input was invaluable! Thanks, Marsha.
I needed something cute and fun after a stressful week at work so this kitty came to life. Ayla, my princess, immediately claimed it via facetime and Sophie, my little fairy, promptly put in an order for a black kitty she could call her own. Completed!
I knit 5 baby sweaters since January and with each one, I saw improvement in my stitches. I love having something on the needles and am currently outfitting a Waldorf doll not even made yet but she is dancing around in my head.
Miss Eva's sweater!
A friend requested a "tan hat with monkey ears on the side" for his new daughter, Presley, so I completed that too! I was a lot more productive than I thought I was!!
I'm currently working on some Waldorf Style Knotted dolls for the babies in my life and hope to get them done when my work stretch is completed on Wednesday! I have one body cut and sewn, velour laid out for the other two. Just enough in my stash for three "baby's first baby's". I might squeak out a fourth to put in the shop too!
