thank you Josie!
Holy crap!
I cannot believe the mail the postman brought me today. I'm seriously floored. This amazing baby gift just arrived from Josie. Her note says "I'm not sure that this one will be good enough to make it on to the wall but I hope you like it anyway." Um, yeah!! It's gorgeous! Just look at it!
It's putting my raggedy quickie specials to shame. The colors are perfect and the fabrics so cute and I just love the stitchy circles.
AND she knit these little booties! They're so sweet. Have I mentioned I've already pulled apart two attempts at making booties since being pregnant. I'd given up hope and now I have a perfect little yellow pair. And she also made this little bib that matches this cutie gymboree onesie. gah! I love it all.
As if that wasn't enough, she sent japanese fabric too!!!
I don't even know what to say. I'm so touched. I'm constantly amazed at how warm and generous people I've met through the blogging are. I'm feeling more than a little bit guilty to be receiving such a beautiful present. Of course I'm feeling that guilt through the happy dance I'm doing all over the apartment with my new treasures.
Thank you Josie!

Hi Hillary,
Thank you so much for your thanks. I am so pleased you like it, I really did love making it. There is a bit of a repeat on my blog too because I guess I wasn't expecting you to like it so much.
Josie

Everything is just gorgeous, and I love the booties, and the embroidered tshirt too. Yellow is such a nice color for a babies room, and its not that pastel lemon either. I am sure your baby will look extra cute in those pressies.

Junebaby is one very lucky baby! What an adorable package.

So lovely! And I think talking about the weather is a Midwest affliction. It's how we get through the winters.
