Butterflies Butterflies
So this post is a little after I finished this craft but I wanted to make sure that my friend got it first before I blogged about it. My friend Shay also lost her baby girl, I haven't known her for very long but if feels like she has always been a part of my life. It kills me that she knows the same pain that I do of loosing your baby, But I know that one day the Lord will make it right!
While Daisy's will always remind us of Colette, For Shay it's butterflies that remind their family of their precious Isabella. So now when I see butterflies I think of them, and wouldn't you know it, but that there are tons of beautiful fabrics out there right now wither butterflies on them, so I decided to make her a baby blanket with butterflies. But I figured this time I should try something new so instead of using the normal batting and tying it I used the warm and natural batting and did the stippling by hand on my machine. It was also my first try at putting a binding around a blanket, It's not perfect but I sure did learn a lot. And most importantly it was made with love, Thanks for being such a good friend Shay! Know that you are always in my prayers :)
beautiful blanket!
