But onto the elephant and giraffe. I was inspired by this post from Shelli Gardner, CEO and Co founder of Stampin' Up! She had the most adorable little bears made from our new fabric on her blog and I wanted some of my own!! Well for the baby :) So I asked the person who sews everything for me, my Mom, if she could make some. So we went on a search for a teddy bear pattern, I have one that I used for Logan but the bear was HUGE! So we were looking for something a little smaller and found this pattern. For those of you that do sew, my Mom said it was a very easy patten to follow, for those of you like me who didn't even understand the directions it might be a little more challenging but I bet you can do it!! So I loved the pattern we got it and I thought the elephant and giraffe would fit better in the baby's room anyway since it already has alot of jungle animals in there from stuff we saved from Logan's room. So we got the pattern and ordered the fabric. Thinking we'd need more than one package we got 2, only to be pleasently surprised that the animals could be cut out of one package!! So I have an extra packge but have already started using it for another project :) But anyway I digress so here are the finished elephant and giraffe!!
I have more super exciting posts this week. I'll be showing you the nurse gifts I made and hopefully some Christmas and Halloween projects (assuming I can get my act together to stamp this week). The house could use a good clean (hmmmm, maybe some deep heavy cleaning will induce labor) and I have and appointment with the dietian today and another ultrasound and Dr appointment on Wednesday. So it's going to be a busy week but I'll find time to stamp, I always do!!!
Thanks for looking, see you soon!!!
