The Magical Madrigals: Today's Forecast.....

Chance of showers...... BABY SHOWERS! Ok, well baby shower.... no plural. I have a baby shower coming up for a friend and I really wanted to start on my baby items for my shop. What better thing to do than to take this as a practice run right? Well, several hours later (I had no existing patterns at the moment, ran out of supplies, etc) I have completed my first baby shower basket. Some of the items are store bought at a great discounted price and they all match the overall theme and color scheme of the gifts that I made. :0)

Again, I am using the camera on my old cell phone at the moment until I finally get off my butt and go buy a new battery for my digital.... so excuse the cruddy quality. :0/

The momma-to-be wanted a Giraffe theme. Everything I found was too girlie except this one. I LOVE the fabric. It is very bright and colorful. Except for some stray flower shapes here and there, it is very boy. This is a plus since her main request was no green or yellow as she didn't want her baby boy to be mistaken for a girl. I hope that the bright colors in this fabric work alright for her as they are not "baby" colors. We shall see.... anywho, here are the items.... and because T-mobile is a pain in my neck, some of the photos (the bib) didn't come through so I can't share them. :0/
