Another little hobby of mine

I've realized that I've gotten really good at something: looking at a craft/finished product in a store and saying, "I could make that" but not actually doing it.  Last month, Sarabeth desperately needed a new bath towel.  Exciting, I know.  She had this darling towel with cute trim and a hood and it was perfect, but a little worse for the wear.  Once again, I found myself thinking, "I could make one of those!"  This time I actually did it, and it turned out great!  I've made several- 2 for my girls and others for presents.  It's been a fun little project and a great gift for those new babies and baby showers.  Here are the finished products, and more importantly, my beautiful models showing them off!  I do have to give credit where credit is due- thank you, mom, for teaching me how to sew.  I can only aspire to be as talented as you!

Hey Bethany! That's my newest gift too, I received some for Cara and Micah, and thought, I could do this!! Yours are TOO cute, much more detailed than mine. Love seeing the updates!

Ok, I'm praying you never saw the ones I did. Embarrassing in comparison to those! You are so creative! I love the little pom-pom's on the pink one. Ava is too big for her baby towels now, so I need to make some new ones. I might be coming to you for advice when the time comes...who knows when I'll actually get around to it. ;)

Again, you are so creative. I've got to learn some basic sewing!
