That New Baby!

Babies need so many things, it is fun to embroider up a storm! Ask the mother if she has a theme and color scheme for the nursery. There are so many cute designs out there, you are sure to find the perfect match. By using the same thread colors for different designs, you can create coordinating nursery items. For a newborn, instead of embroidering clothing that could irritate delicate skin, embroider bibs, burp cloths, blanket corners, or a crib bumper bad. For bibs and burps, use small designs in a corner so that most of the surface is still soft and absorbent. Redwork or quilting designs are also good choices. Larger filled designs can be used for a wall hanging or diaper bag.

If you prefer heirloom work, ask the mother if she would like a christening gown or bonnet. Try an in-the-hoop toy that is baby safe (no buttons or ribbons that can be pulled off). If there is an older child, embroider a "Big Brother" or "Big Sister" shirt so everyone feels special!

The two-headed Buddies in a Blanket make a wonderful new baby gift. They are soft, cuddly and safe. One head can be either an awake lambie or piggie (pig in a blanket...get it?) and when you flip the blanket the animal is asleep. You can add personalization to make this even more special.
