Hello friends - I am back but with a different topic. Its five months since my blog was in cold storage. No, I am not hibernating! In fact I have never been
so busy in my life. My cooking has taken a back seat for the moment and all my other interests like sewing, knitting, quilting which were lying dormant for several years are now taking centre stage and
all this is because we have now become grandparents to a cute little
princess. Now everything centres around the little one. She keeps us
all on our toes the whole day and night long but her one little smile
is all that is needed for our tiredness to vanish. All said and done,
I am not complaining. I am just loving it!
Whenever time permitted, I managed to do some
small baby quilts, a quilt cover, a comforter and also knitted some
sweaters and booties and bonnets etc..
A few
of them which I am displaying here :
 |
| Sweaters, bonnets and booties |
 |
| Cap and shoes |
 |
| The patchwork quilt with satin base |
 |
| This quilt and the one above were made from the leftover wool |
 |
| Small quilts made from left over cotton cloth |
 |
| A tiny set of bedsheet with pillow cover |
 |
| Another set of bedsheet and a matching pillow cover |
 |
| This Bedsheet (normal single bed adult size) with motifs was made by my late mother |
 |
| Cotton comforter |
 |
| Comforter made with batting inside |
 |
| A blanket cover |
 |
| Blanket cover - one side printed cotton cloth and the other side I attached a motif (made by my late mother) on a plain cotton cloth with an opening on one side. |
My joy knew no bounds when I was told by my daughter that my grand daughter slept for 7 hours without waking up at night ( she would wake up almost every hour otherwise) when she used the comforter ( the blue one I made above) for the first time.
I am experiencing the joys of being a grandma. Currently I am making some bibs - small drool bibs as well some large ones (apron bibs).
