Teddy and Jingly Book for Cooper

My nephew Cooper turned 1 the other day, and below are a couple of my hand-made gifts for him.




This jingly book started out as something else in my mind, but it ended up being a soft quilted 5-page book with bells that jingle, on the cover, and lots of buttons and hoops and ribbons for a tactile toddler to poke at or pull.











Dragonfly Birthday Gift Theme

For my birthday this year, I (Michelle) received 2 unexpected gifts from 2 very creative friends. Check out the gorgeous dragonfly painting that Kara-Anne did for me:


And have a look at this awesome pin cushion made by Cory. Notice the embroidered dragonfly (the theme of this gift), and the colours to match Kara's painting. Thanks so much girls!
