Then along comes my wonderful friend Marissa with her, and I quote, "lackadaisical and creative" artistic nature. I fell in love with the quilt she made for another friend's adopted baby. And thought hmmmmm....maybe I could use a little loosening up?
All the knitting glitteratti gathered at Rosie's to celebrate Flippy's imminent arrival. There was champagne, cupcakes and chocolate cake! Yum! A grand time was had by all and some of us even did a little knitting.
Marissa and I were both very happy with our tag-team quilt. But the expression on Courtney's face when she unwrapped it was the best. Mariss and I are hoping that this becomes the future security blanket, you know, the one that secretly gets packed when Flippy goes off to college.
My quilting mojo may be making a return. Thank heavens, because I have several quilts that need to be finished. How could that be, you might ask?
These eensy tiny baby mittens were knit by Emily. As Kate would say, "they are so stinkin' cute!"

They're mine! Well, they're Flippy's really, but I made 'em. :) I've actually a written up a pattern for infant and 6 mo. sizes that I'll post on my blog one o' these days. Glad to hear they made "stinkin' cute" status! Thanks!
I'll bet your quilt will become THE security blanket. I LOVE the result of your two creative styles - you should collaborate again!
