Dresses for my new granddaughter
 

My first granddaughter is due in April. I have 2 grandsons, 19 and 17, so I am very excited. Yesterday instead of working on a quilt, I made four dresses for her, one a newborn, one 3 months, one 6 months, and one 12 months. They turned out so neat. I am excited to take them to the baby shower in 2 weeks. I sewed them on my late mother-in-law's 1934 Singer featherweight and used baby clothes buttons that came from my late mother. So my granddaughter will have something that ties her to 2 of her great-grandmothers.
Sorry no pictures.

I bet she is going to be the best dressed baby!!! I have two young granddaughters close to me, one is a complete tomboy and the other one is the girly girl and they are from the same family. But both of them are fun to have around.

Oh how exciting, congrats!!!!

I can just imagine you wiggling like a puppy you are so excited.
We'd love to see pictures :) of the dresses, not you wiggling but that would be ok also

It is so exciting hearing that you have made four new little dresses for your first grand daughter!! :D How fun & I am sure her Mother will love them so much. What a treasure you have created for them. Hope to see pictures of her after she arrives!!
:D :D :D :D

OH I love baby clothes. my Mother made some soft flannel baby clothes with tiny rosettes (rose buds) out of ribbons. they were too small for my son so i saved them for 30 years and gave them to my DIL. I don't think she used them either, sniff, sniff.

I enjoyed your story, I have a new great granddaughter who lives in Alaska. I think I might get to meet her in May when she attends her great grand parents 65 wedding anniversary. Meanwhile this almost 7 months little one is growing in my eyes with her parents sending me phone video's of her crawling, standing, playing and etc. I so enjoy each photo and video, its an exciting time for all.

I bet they will be charished...I don't have any grad-daughters just a grandson...Maybe oneday I will have some greats...Congrats.....

LOL, babies grow!! Get that camera out and start practicing on those dresses. Would love to see!!

Congratulations. It's been a long wait for you. We had 5 grandsons before we got our granddaughter. You are going to love having a granddaughter. It is so much fun to sew for girls.
