Remembering Avery

A very dear friend recently gave birth to her darling Son Avery who was born still.

She has decided to raise funds for a much needed service called Heartfelt. This service is provided to those family in need at such a sad time of their lives for a very small cost. They would have to be the most compassionate and understanding people in the world, to do what they do.

I have contributed in a very small way and these are some of the articles that are up for auction at Remembering Avery

These items were all hand dyed in shades of lime, turquoise, green and blue to capture an ocean theme.  There is a size newborn Farbenmix set with an OBV top and pants in french terry, both lush and divine, and squishy.  A size 1 Auriel and a small HoneyBoy! in Bamboo Terry hand dyed with a OBV inner and an applique of a seahorse.



You can find Kristie's journey at Hesperas Garden She is the most amazingly beautiful, wonderful, strong woman, who is sharing her heart breaking story with us all. I am blessed to be her friend.

Bows!

Before becoming a nappy maker this is what I did - custom embroidery and smocking! I still do a little bit for friends. This is a set.

A pillowcase with satin trim.
Sheet with lace
and a matching wrap!

All done in subtle coffee colours, latte and gold.



I am hoping to get some gorgeous smocked garments finished in time for Gossamer Dreams

Angel's Baby and

a giveaway!

Well my gorgeous Angel's baby is starting to come up to his/her date for arrival, so we are going to have a little guessing game.

What do you win - 1 custom item - yes that's right you get to choose whatever up to the value of $65 - postage is at your expense. So you could choose a nappy, a dress, shorts and top, whatever I make. Chance plays no part in this giveaway and it's totally based on when bubba arrives. Should 2 people choose the same date, the nappy will be randomly drawn from a hat for those entrants.

Now some background - Angel's first bubba arrived at 35+2 and bubba no 2 arrived at 41 weeks, so you have a nice spread of arrival time. This bubba is due before the middle of September, so lots of dates for you to pick. Bubba has been a wee bit active hence my putting my foot down and making miss Angel rest ...... much to her consternation!

So go for it - and leave your date and your name, winner will be posted on this blog when bubba arrives. I can't contact you via FB, so please make sure you have a contact email addy, if I don't have one, you will have 48 hours to claim your prize via email to angel at cherubskiss dot com

Have lots of fun. There will be another guessing one in a couple of days for baby's weight, with another nappy up for grabs.

Only one entry per household and comments are moderated, so they may take a little while to show up.
