Carter's gift basket and a new baby

I just found out last night that we are getting a new addition to the family.

My nephew, Mathew, will be a daddy for the first time.

I am so excited!

It seems it wasn't that long ago that I was making things for the bridal shower.

 

Anyhow, that reminded me, I never posted little Carter's baby gift.

Carter is the very newest addition to our family.

Carter is Cole's baby brother and my great nephew.

 

Carter's theme was sports and animals.

 

I got started with this little elephant design.

 

 

I wanted to stitch something to match the elephant I purchased.

 

 

I added a bib...

 

 

a burp cloth...

 

 

 a hooded towel and washcloth...

 

 

and started on the basket liner...

 

 

I added a few extras like powder, shampoo, wash, etc. and this personalized Christmas ornament I found at Michaels.

 

 

Here it is all together.

 

 

Unfortunately, I forgot to take a photo after it was wrapped and ready to go.

You can see my other wrapped baby baskets here, here, here, here, here and here.

 

Stay tuned...
I have even another baby basket in progress for a friend.

I love making baskets for new babies...
Is it obvious?
