A little Vitamin C

It’s my Creative Team Monday at The Button Shop blog and I could hardly stop biting my nails this morning. I couldn’t wait to show you what’s been pent up in this noggin of mine for over a month. I chose Tessa Ann’s Orange Tree buttons, oh my gosh are these things adorable! And completely detailed. The branches are awesome. Here’s what I came up with-

A comfy and sweet newborn outfit set. I made the hat from my own pattern (a Pyrex bowl was involved, I’m such a pro) using white stretch jersey and a little inspiration from my mom circa 15 years ago. I made the booties from my own pattern out of cotton and embellished a store bought newborn shirt. The shirt was an after thought but I was having so much fun I couldn’t stop. If I would have given myself more time I would have made pants to go with it all, I had 2 buttons left ;). If you’d like to see some close-ups you can visit Tessa’s blog here.

I have another project in the works that I can finally share on Friday. All these secret projects are killing me… and my poor nubbins for nails. I hate secrets so how about a giveaway to pass the time? A secret giveaway. Make a guess about my newest project and you’ll be entered to win something related to it. Edited to add *here's a clue- it's girl or boy*. You don't have to answer correctly to win though, just leave a comment. I'm a sucker for comments.

Good luck and I’ll pick a random winner Friday.
