So, I've actually had a pretty good crafting streak going on here lately, but unfortunately, most of it can't be posted just yet. So I'll settle for sharing a photo of a gift I put together a few months back for a sweet little friend of ours. I saw the idea for a doll's diaper bag ages ago, and never had an excuse to use it... so I jumped on the chance when we had a little girly birthday come up.
The doll was mine when I was a child. I thought he needed a new home, and a mommy to care for him properly. He's actually bald (oh, sorry... she's actually bald... this particular little girl only has girl babies). She's wearing a little bear hat that I knitted. I sewed up the wipes and diapers (made from a white t-shirt that was no longer in use), and everything else was purchased. I really wanted to make the diaper bag myself, but time was against me. C'est la vie.
There was one more diaper, but Zach confiscated it for his kitty. She has been wearing it ever since.
so sweet! and i love that zach needed one diaper for his kitty!

I can't believe that baby was yours as a child, it looks brand new! That is a cute idea. I may have to try making something like that for QQ & Vance after the baby in my belly is born.

I think I have a little girl that's lucky to have someone in her life that needs an outlet for her girly crafting needs.
You know, we ought to get together sometime.... Malcolm was harassing me the other day about how he never gets to play with Zach anymore.... Maybe we ought to reserve an afterschoolish afternoon sometime next week.... Let's think on that.
