Coming Home
4:47 pm My last three babies were born at home, so I've never needed a coming home outfit for them. This little baby will be born in hospital and Oh how I hope he/she'll be coming home.
Maybe I should've waited to make this outfit. Maybe until after the anomoly scan, until we know baby is ok, or until we know the gender. Or maybe I shouldn't have made anything at all.
I like to make, it's what I do, it's when I feel most calm, it keeps these too empty hands busy.
I don't regret making any of the little things I made for Florence, but I know if this baby can't come home with us, I will regret it if I never made anything.

We only regret the things that we didn't do - how true that is!

That is a beautiful outfit (for a girl or a boy) I can't wait to see your baby in it.
ReplyDeleteThat is a truly beautiful outfit! Your talent never ceases to amaze me.
ReplyDeleteWell done with the driving, I know how hard it has been for you, but look at how far you have come.
That's really lovely Jeanette. So pretty. I love the colour of the wool especially.
ReplyDeleteYou sound a bit more at peace now that you've started making things for the new baby. Maybe that's just reading (too much) between the lines but that's how it comes across from your posts. The outfit is gorgeous, I love it all together, specially the cardigan and bootees and hat.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely incredible.
ReplyDeleteThis really is a beautiful outfit Jeanette. I admire your make-i-ness so much. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful skill you have Jeanette, and it is so very clear that your gifts for your babies are made with oodles of love. x
