Meeting Grace

This weekend I have been blessed to meet my darling new niece Grace. She is so small and snuggly and just devine. Here she is at 10 days old having a cuddle with her Mum Kate ......

 Isn't she adorable?!!

And of course a special girl needs a special quilt, so I made her this ......

The rings are made with mainly Prints Charming fabrics and a few solids, the background is Moda Bella Solid in grey and I used Denyse Schmidt's "Single Girl" pattern. I pieced the back with more Prints Charming fabrics and a soft polkadot cotton voile.

Here she is having a kick on her quilt. Look how tiny she is!! So cute!!

Well I found it hard to stop there ... I was really enjoying sewing baby things so I also made a baby change mat from one of Joel Dewberry's Aviary fabrics and a soft butter coloured chenille. It was so easy to make and I used this tutorial from Cluck Cluck Sew. It matches Kate's baby bag.

It has space in it to hold some nappy wipes and a couple of nappies (diapers) too ......

I also had fun making a couple of bibs, one for the week days and one for Sunday :)

The one on the left was made using a great tutorial from Sew She Sews. The back is also made from a snuggly soft chenille ......

It was wonderful meeting Grace and I can't wait for the next cuddle!!
