Which do you think looks better?
Both of my daughters and their babies were there and helped me host the shower. It was a very nice day, lots of conversation and all the babies got passed around. We had it at the local activity center so some husbands came along and were able to play pool and socialize as well.
My husband had to go to work before it was over (I would have, too, except I made arrangements for someone to work for me!) so our daughters, the babies and I had a great afternoon together and then supper out. My oldest had to leave a little quicker than planned because the weather started getting bad. Nothing severe but she – nor I – wanted her to drive in it.
For my next project I’m looking for a nice bookmark pattern. InTatters is having a bookmark exchange in May. I have never done an exchange before, but I think I can handle a bookmark. And then there is the thread choice, maybe harder than the pattern, because of course it has to be just right for the pattern. But that’s part of the fun, isn’t it?
Oh, I definitely like the one you decorated better!
Lovely shoes and I do like what you did with them. They will make a nice keepsake for the baby.
The refinded baby shoes are so cute!! I would never have thought of that.
Beautiful! The shoes are so cute with the tatting on them.
Thank you ladies for your kind words! They took a lot less time than the booties I tatted for the boys, but they turned out cute.
Of course the one with tatting looks so much prettier, I especially like the way ou decorated the strap.
the shoe you decorated is really pretty, looks elegant with the little pearls. i’m envious of the baby now. 😛
Thanks, Singtatter, that was an afterthought that worked out great!
Yes, Valerie, it really did add a little pizzaz to the shoe. Maybe we should find a plain pair of shoes for ourselves and make them not so plain!
