Goodies for Grace

Karin's first baby is coming in September and this prompted me to get back to the sewing machine.  Kids have lots more gear these days, and every manner of blankie, bib, swaddling blanket, burp cloth, changing pad, you name it.  Single purpose items, sized for the job.  No more cloth diapers used for everything, like in the dinosaur days.  Now the cloth diaper needs some cool fabric sewn on, maybe trimmed out, and tied up in bunches of three for $18.   I went online and downloaded a few patterns, and came up with my own little stash of goodies for her.   Soft and sweet and made by me for Grace Estella Meadow.  A great movie star name if I ever heard one.
