Let me introduce you to my niece, Julie. She is expecting a baby boy in two weeks, possibly sooner! I made the knitted baby blanket she has draped over her. I took it to her today and told her I wanted to take a picture before I left. She draped herself and said take the picture! We had lunch together and talked. I think she will make a great mom.Julie was the most precious baby and little girl. We were so close when she was young. She was the daughter I wished for, but never had. You know how it is when they start growing up and need you less. Now that she is having a child of her own, I think we will grow close again. I hope so!
Knitting the baby blanket has really kept me busy! It took a little over two weeks to complete. I stopped stitching during that time. Now, I have a sewing project and stitching to get back to.
Tomorrow, I will be posting about a lovely quilting package I received as a giveaway. I will not tell you about it today as it needs a special post of its own.
Have a good evening
Teresa

That is a wonderful gift. I know she will love having it from her Aunt. Hope you do become closer again. Good luck to her.

What a wonderful gift your niece now has to wrap her little boy in when he arrives in the world. I am sure that becoming a mom will change her perspective about having a wonderful aunt to be in her and her baby's life.

You made a lovely blanket, Teresa! I'm sure the baby will be cuddled in that ...
Hugs, Carolien
