finding her toes

baby girl has recently found her toes. on her back, baby girl can't help but reach for her feet, look at her toes, and slobber all over them.

i feel sad that now baby girl's found her toes, it's time to cover them (since the weather's getting cooler).

for several months, i have had all the best intentions to make the cutest booties for baby girl's feet. with our trip to scotland looming, i was finally motivated to work on them.

i finished the denim pair just before our trip, but they were already too small for baby girl's feet. so, i tried again with a pair of brown booties. a perfect fit, with a little room for her feet to grow.

i used heather bailly's pattern and modified the look to meet my creative whims. here are pics of my first two pairs. i have plans for a cream, pink, denim, and black pairs. i will share pictures as i make them. (the denim pair went to our new baby girl cousin. welcome to the world, little girl!)
