Happy Birthday Cutie!

Sewing Project: Sweetheart Shrug

I still remember the day when we met her for the first time - she was this fuzzy bundle with face of a porcelain doll...I swear, not a single wrinkle on her tiny face. How can you not fall in love?
 She is a girly girl, with a soft laughter and cutest of smiles.
She showers me with kisses sometimes and it always melts my heart.
Something tells me that I'm her favorite Aunt. (or she may just have a knack for making people feel special)
She is just months older than my munchkin and is already her role model. I always wish that they grow up to be best friends.

You would think it would be a snap to make something for her...sewing for girls...that's all I do. No such luck! You see her Mom has exquisite taste and anything less than super-cute would never see the light of the day. It better be the best.

I scoured pinterest for inspiration and here's what I finally come up with ( Based on this tutorial with some modifications). Will it pass the test? We'll know soon!


Happy birthday little one! Its a pleasure watching you grow. Love you lots.
