Friends, Baby Girls & Embroidery

Have I mentioned lately that I'm surrounded buy the most talented friends a girl could ask for? Because my gosh, I really am. One of Gretchen's honourary aunts embroidered this for her 2nd birthday.

Amazing, yes?

That sweet little garland is just so sweet & the backdrop is a cushy corduroy. Gorgeous. And Gretchen adores it. She likes to carry it around, turning it back and forth, spelling her name and saying, "Gretchen! Write Gretchen!" over and over.

I love that she will grow up surrounded by my wonderfully crafty chosen family. It makes my heart sing.

PS. The friend who made this also got a doily tattoo yesterday. We're twins, and I dig it.
PPS. If you're over there in Google Reader land, I invite you hop over to the blog for a moment to check out the new layout. Hope you like it!
