Babies, babies....EVERY WHERE!!!

Lately, it seems like everyone is having a baby or just found out they are pregnant.  Since I made a pact with myself to give meaningful homemade gifts, that means my time during naps and after bedtime mas recently been spent making a little boy trousseau.

Here are some pictures, but tutorials for the onesie card and the felt photography letters will follow soon.



And yes... those letters are all HAND-stitched.  I can't get felt to go through the sewing machine correctly, so there you go.  Lots of tiny stitches and knotted embroidery floss (and a few choice words)---- and a beautiful baby photo prop is made.  I discovered a few very nice shortcuts-- I share them in the tute.
