Clare helped me pick out fabric for her friend, Cris, who is having TWINS! A boy and a girl! We found this great organic modern leaf fabric which I made a wubsie and matching onesie for each baby. Pink for the girl and blue for the boy! Love them!
Next weekend I am having a trunk show at my house (Saturday at 11 for all of those who live in AZ...everyone is welcome...email me if you want more details). My Mom flew in this weekend and brought a new batch of knitted baby blankets. They are GORGEOUS! Bright colors!!! I just love them!
Tiffany sent me pictures of Tyler on his blanket now that he fits in his onesie! What an adorable baby boy! I absolutely love seeing the babies after they are born and they are on their blankets. It is so perfect!
Thank you Tiffany!!! (And of course thank you to Amy for giving such a wonderful gift and supporting my Luverlies!)
My friend Stacey was looking for a really unique gift to give a friend of hers who is having a little boy. I showed her the hooter hider I had made and she asked if I could make a blanket, onesie, and burp cloth to match. What an amazing gift! This new mom is going to look so put together with all of her coordinating baby items! :)
Many thanks to Stacey for supporting my little luverlies project!
I made a wubsie for Cameron to match her blanket. I brought it to her yesterday and it was such a hit. The size was perfect for Cameron to pick up and carry (or throw) and the soft fabric was perfect for her to cozy up against. What a perfect gift!
Tony asked me to make 2 blankets and bring them back to Michigan with me. Thanks to Tony for his 3rd "Luverlies" purchase. He currently holds the record...he might be tied with Alexa. I take that back...Clare definately has purchased the most!
A big THANK YOU to all of my friends for supporting Lisa's Luverlies! I am so appreciative...words can't describe it.
May 2010 be full of joy and prosperous for us all!
Kim requested I make a blanket for her baby girl to match the colors of her nursery (pink and green). This is the first time I Incorporated a really soft nubby fabric typically found on traditional baby blankets. I tried to make it look a little more modern by mixing it with the retro and polka dot cotton fabrics. I also made a really soft wubsie to match (new and improved wubbie) which is small in size and perfect for when Emma becomes a toddler!
Elissa asked me to make a blanket for Alisha's new baby! I am waiting for a picture of Brooke on the blanket. She is the cutest thing ever...with spikey dark brown hair...so adorable! I already have a Brooke Blanket (Gil's niece) so I am not sure what to name this blanket. I will have to find out if she has middle name!
Hmmm...where to start! I guess at the very beginning way before Lisa's Luverlies existed. It all started the year we found out my brother and his wife were having a baby. I wanted to do something really special...and of course...unique! My boss taught me how to make the 'drag around' blanket and then I made the onesies and a little bonnet to match. Even before I had finished making it I had requests from my sister and other friends to make blankets for their friends. And thats how it all started. I guess I have my niece Kendall (shown in the photo) to thank. Or my brother and sister-in law! :)
Since then I have made well over 100 blankets. And I am very proud to say each of them have been different from each other and created for each special baby! Thus, the blankets are named after the baby they are given to. I think I am over my limit so I will add pricing and more photos in a regular blog. More to come!
