For Baby Jack

During one of my long 'uncrafty' and "missing-in-action" moments over the past couple of months, I was actually sneakily crafting behind the scenes (along with a few other ladies) to bless the socks off our sweet friend Chelle, her family and their newest addition - Adorable baby Jack. I have been wanting to share these for ages... but wanted to wait till they were safety at their destination so not to spoil the surprise.

I made my favourite sock animal - the zebra. I think I'm just really crazy about his hair!!
He is from the Japanese craft book (Sock & Glove)...

A mini-man pair of overalls. Using the same pattern (and material) as I did on Cade's overalls... still loving those kangaroos and emus, and still just as confused about the african animals?!

and my hands with it, so you can see just how small the little neckline is.

And two of my tea towel bibs...

Funny trivia.. I know this spotty fabric scrap came in my little bundle from the Domestic Bliss Scrappy Swap and am pretty sure it was from Chelle and is in the quilt she made Rylan?! This little scrap certainly is a little jet setter ;)

All wrapped up with a little onesie initialed card on a mini coat hanger...
I just adore making baby gifts and baby sized items!
