My friend and neighbor has made me lots of cute headbands with little felt flowers. She makes all sorts of fun clippies and accessories as a business and I sincerely appreciate the items she donates to Angel Babies. I find that families really like headbands for their little girls over hats most of the time.
I also have had a number of cute gowns and sleeper sacks crocheted and knitted lately. I love how unique each one of these is! I have a special soft spot in my heart for the ones made by other angel mamas and grandmas - I love to be able to tell the families I serve a little about the people who created the outfits.Matching twin set! My friend Jerri did these, and she simple didn't add as many stitches on the gown part of the boy one so that it would be a little straighter down and look more masculine. You can't see it very well, but she added a simple ribbon belt just under the arms that ties in the back and a cute button on each. The boy one has a little star that is just perfect.
These were made by an angel grandma (with the exception of the smallest hat, which was made by my sister). She does beautiful work! Scroll down for a closer shot of the detail work on the small pink and white one. I would like to point out that the larger hats are perhaps just a little bit bigger than the proportions of the gowns, so if you're trying to gauge sizes, I'd go just a little smaller.
Love the delicate pink edging and the little rosebud!
