Braden's little Easter outfit. I love the little button on pants for baby boys! They are just so adorable! I'm glad the Easter Bunny didn't see them before he filled the baskets. I think he might have tossed the Peeps for these little scrumptious babies!

This is Gabe's little outfit complete with Peter Rabbit!

Well, Easter outfits have been made and worn. Each one looking so sweet you could just eat 'em up, as we Southerners say! Lauren wore a bishop smocked in various shades of yellow with pink/coral buillion rosebuds. The hem was a Madeira scalloped hem. Just above the center point  on the hem is a basket of flowers hanging from a shadow worked ribbon held by two little bluebirds. In the scallops on the sides are two bunnies surrounded by carrots.

Today held a special surprise for me! I opened my email to find that I was the winner of the Sew Beautiful Blog giveaway. I will be the recipient of Beverley Sheldrick's Silk Ribbon Embroidery Projects for Baby, a linen gift bag ready to embroider and several yds. of beautiful silk ribbon! I'm so excited! Many thanks to Sew Beautiful, my favorite and most useful magazine!

One of which is to get this little blog the way I'd like it to be. I have found so much inspiration and information from fellow sewing enthusiasts and truly appreciate the sharing community of those who love to sew. It seems with each "click of the mouse" I am finding more and more beautiful things created from the fingertips of some very talented people!

Speaking of talented people - many blessings flow from the fingertips and one that I am particularly proud of happens to be my sister, Barbara Davis. Barbara is an extremely blessed and talented artist. Her sweet spirit flows through the tips of her paintbrushes, as you will see. Refresh your spirit and visit her blog - it's listed on my sidebar!
