Recently one of Miss O and Short Round's friends turned two. There was a birthday brunch to celebrate her big day.
Now I am not big fan of getting toys for other people's kiddos because you just never know what they don't want their kids to have. Some examples of this is barbies, SpongeBob Square Pants, or anything that makes noise and requires batteries. In order to not be the guest who brings the forbidden gifts, I like to make things special for these kiddos.
I spent what felt like forever in front of my fabric trying to pick something that she would like. This flower fabric was new, and right on top of the pile. I kept going back to it, and decided it had to be the best choice. I also had just enough orange webbing left to make a quick purse. Oh and of course there is not a gift from us that is complete without a hairbow.
When it came time to open presents, I found out that the guest of honor's favorite color is orange!! She seemed to love it, and opened all the rest of her presents with the purse on her shoulder.
Squeezing in this quick and cute sewing project really lifted my mood and brightened my day.
She still loves it. Thank you for all of your creative and homemade gifts.
