This picture is our daughter Nina, taking a picture in their baby's nursery. Nina and John are expecting Elizabeth, their first baby in just a few months.
I think the nursery is about ready, I am going over there later to wait for a repairman and will take some more pictures of the nursery to show.
Yes, the walls are blue and the baby is a girl - John is a football coach and did not want things too girly - he may be in for some surprises down the road - but he is a good guy and I am sure he will be a great dad, even if Elizabeth is as girly a girl as her momma.
I found this old maternity top pattern at a thrift store for a dime and made Nina one top from it from a cute black and white print. Sorry, no picture though.
She liked it and picked out 4 more pieces of fabric from the sewing room.
I finished them up today and think they turned out pretty good. Nina is on the tall side so I added a couple of inches to length of all of them.
So cute on the tops. You're a good mama to make the them. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI love that color blue and the white furnature will look great. Maybe a ruffled blanket or curtain?

Congratulations to Nina & John! Also to you....you're going to be a grandma!
ReplyDeleteLove the maternity tops!!
Congratulations! I usually find my patterns at the thrift store these days, too. Very cute tops.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeleteWhat cute furniture in the nursery!
Now you will have a grandson and grand daughter!!! Cute tops.
ReplyDeleteWhat I would have given for shirts like this back in the day. I think I wore the same six tops for months on end! Well done, Rhonda!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new granddaughter! I love the color of the nursery. Nice job on the tops.
ReplyDeleteHow exciting! The blue is beautiful...even for a girl. When I was expecting Taylor, I painted the nursery blue and we didn't know if he was going to be a girl or boy. It can go either way.
ReplyDeleteNice job sewing, too!
That is exciting news Rhonda! How sweet of you to make those pretty tops for her!
