Diaper bag preview for C


I usually don't use names in my posts but since I want to talk up the-best-photographer-ever, Courtney Vickers, I'll use her name liberally here ;). She is incredible!! I'm sure you can tell just by looking at my blog that I'm obsessed with her work. She's been taking pictures of my kids since they were teeny tiny and each image is so precious to me. Top her talent off with how sweet she is and you have quite a package!!

I was touched to be asked to make a diaper bag for her sister in law's new baby. I hope she finds it useful and cute to schlep all of her new baby gear around with her!

On our trip to San Antonio I found myself with time while I was traveling...TIME is what I usually don't have. I spent that time going between drawing in my sketchbook and playing with embroidery stuff that I got for the jewelry class I was teaching. I fell in love with embroidery and turned the little things that I was making into jewelry pieces (I'll post those another time). Lately I have been painting, very small, on canvas and embroidering around them before turning them into jewelry- serious fun! I used an embroidered piece on this bag's closure.

I'll send you off with Courtney's website (even though it's plastered all over my blog!) for your eye candy this evening....
