OUR FIRST GRANDCHILD ✍️ A note from Papa & Nana ❣️ 26th February 2023 you were born 💓
“ You will always be the ONE, who took our heart by surprise. Loving so completely, you are perfection in our eyes. Dreams of you and us, will fill us with delight. But nothing could compare, to the first time we held you tight. Overwhelming love, greater than we knew. Wrapped in pride and joy, and all the riches of you. You will be shamelessly spoiled, with our affection and time. Photographs and phone calls, lullabies and nursery rhymes. You make us smile, and boast of all you do. We will play again,and feel the joy in life with you. You will always be the FIRST, a true blessing from above. You will always be the grandbaby, who filled our HEARTS and souls with love.
Another 12 months of pure joy with you our precious Cora 💓 HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY SWEET GRANDCHILD OF OURS ♥️ Those little hands & feet hold our hearts forever 🫶
Good morning and again it’s the 15th of the next month.
This time I am actually on as I have worked out all the kinks and falls that go along with the New phone and I’m able to post on time.
Today Marks the 23rd anniversary for my sister and brother-in-law and what were away to show my love then to make them something that my sister has been wanting for a little while now.
A couple of years ago I had made them some chair backs and she has been using them constantly and has been asking me to make her a new set when I have the time.
So the whole process has been a Scrap happy process where the lace used for the top is antique and picked up at an op shop in Country Victoria almost a year ago to be used at some stage. I had thought I could use it as a topper for my table but found there were a few rips in the crochet and so I decided I would use this and cut around those spots.
The backing is again something that has been given to me by a friend who had all this surplus material lying around and did not want to throw it away. Needless to say this material is about 10 years old and still in very good condition.
It was quite fiddly to put together as the lace is a little bit hard to work with and hold in place, but I have made the chair backs for my sisters sofas. We will be going over a bit later with some cake, and I’m hoping she will be happy with these.
And so presenting….
Looking forward to another month of sewing and babysitting and baking and all things good.
Happy Scrap happy day my friends and looking forward to looking at all the various posts 🫶
