My sister Erica, hosted Alyssa's baby shower this past weekend. It turns out, the girl has some mad party-planning skills. It was filled with fun and food and lots of baby gifts. I'm so proud of her and grateful for all the work she put into making my girl's day extra special.
I was able to get the quilt finished in time for the shower, wasn't sure that was going to happen.
Thank you, so much for your wonderfully kind comments on the crib bedding. This project was especially close to my heart and your love made it that much sweeter.
I need to take a little break from baby sewing to get some other things marked off that never ending to-do list. Maybe I'll have some things to share this week that aren't pink. (in case you're getting a little bored with all the sugar and spice)
WOW I love the quilt! I wish I had another girl! Your sister did an awesome job on all the party stuff! I love the cake!

Hi Autum! I love the quilt, (and the bedding to match in the previous post!) it already resembles a much-loved heirloom, and I can't wait to see it after the baby has loved it up for a few years!
The cake, the little decorations, all of it looks LOVELY especially the food!

Bored with the sugar and spice? Not hardly!!!
Your sister? Geez Louise, she does have some MAD party planning skillz! That looks like one absolutely lovely baby shower... the food, the decor, that *CAKE* - just lovely. (that cake transcends lovely... that cake looks magazine- or cooking-show-worthy!)
I'm so glad that A had such a lovely party - she'll treasure those memories...
