A special Dress

A special dress for a special little girl Tabbetha my granddaughter is 2 on the 7th Febuary and i have made her this hat & dress i think it has turned out well. I love the pleats and i have decided to cover the three little buttons in the pasley material, i nearly always do a hat with her outfits so now my name is Nanny hat. I have knitted her a chunky cardigan to go with it. I just have 1 sleeve to do and then i will take a picture of it. While i was making the dress it took me back, to when my daughter Louise was having her, i was at their house looking after Oliver who was tucked up in bed and i was down stairs dozing i had said to my son in law Michael to keep me informed expecting a phone call when she was born but instead he kept texting me messages and it went like this

Got the call to go down.
Waters bust Ok.
Drip in and going well.
Mum will take ollie to school.
Pushing now.
7 pounds 6oz

I have saved this in my mobile phone folder and when i told my daughter Louise she was amazed as she did not know he was doing this, the thought of one hand holding her and the other texting me lol, well thats the story of how my first granddaughter entered this world one beautiful little girl. Oh by the way girls, ive got a new laptop so i can blog about the house. Bye for now. X
i love how you get from this ...
