Beyond Cute

Lydia has truly outdone herself.

This is what was just delivered to me.

I had asked her to make me a baby gift to give to a couple at church, and after a few discussions about nose colors, this is what she came up with.

Here are both items all done up in a pretty package.

It's so perfect. And knowing that I would be jealous, I had her make the same thing for me with no name for Future Baby. He/she is getting a wardrobe already.

Thank you Lydia. If I ever get my embroidery machine out of hiding, I'm going to come take lessons from you. I can't imagine doing anything this pretty. The new parents-to-be will be so excited.

Lydia's shop is Layne James Embroidery and Designs . The good thing about being a designer is that she doesn't have to do cookie-cutter designs; she can picture things and do what you want with them. Unlike me. I'm a cookie-cutter embroiderer - and not a very good one at that.
