On its way!!!

Just thought I would go ahead and post up a few pictures of the gifts I whipped together!
Everything was sent out this morning to Susan!


I was initially going to send her a few Eric Carle Jr books, but after looking through some of her photos, I seen she had several.
So I sent her
Heaven is Having You, by Giles Andreae
I bought several for Noah and Ryder and Noah really seems to love them!
Also a little tin full of chocolate candies

Here are the baby blocks I made out of the scrap fabric that Chelle sent me from the quilt!

I loved how it all turned out.

I hand stitched them all in different sizes because I thought they might be more fun to play with.

or if she just wanted to use them for looks...either way the different sizes give it a nice balance i thought...

This was the first time I made fabric blocks, so they definitely didn't turn out perfect, but I'm still proud of myself :)

Can't wait to see what everyone else made!

Love you ladies
