Catching up



I have a beautiful grandaughter. She is now 16 days old. I have been too busy to post much, but, I need to catch up with what I have been up to and mostly (between cross stitching and bear making and folding and delivering junk mail) I have been spending time with my beautiful daughter and her very beautiful brand new baby girl. :0)

Jasmine Ann was born on December 13th at 5:20pm, weighing 6 pounds 10 ounces and measuring 55cm long. She is just gorgeous.

I have almost finished stitching the birth sampler. I do not have any more recent photos of it, but, I will get around to photographing it soon.

The photo of Jasmie Ann was taken by me, yesterday. Isn't she just gorgeous?

love Cathie

I designed and started stitching a new bear last night. It is a friends birthday a week from now and I am going to be giving it to her as a gift.

It is such fun doing bears again and I am really enjoying sculpting around the eyes and nose of my latest bear. It adds real depth of character to their faces.

My first grand child is due to be born any day now and I am going to make her a bear when she is born. Well, we have been told she is a girl, but, that was from an ultrasound at 18 weeks, so, I am going to wait to see if it is definitely a girl before I start on a teddy bear for her..............

Of course, I have bought heaps of pink clothes for the new baby, so, if by chance it is a boy, well, I guess I will be selling lots of brand new, pink baby clothes on Ebay. lol lol
