The Addition

Baby Betsy arrived early yesterday morning!

As a result, we are taking it easy around here, just recuperating and enjoying the baby. 

I was pretty sure the baby would be a girl, so I went ahead and made up a little dress just in case, out of leftovers from one of my summer dresses. She has to grow into it first, but since she's a redhead maybe I should have picked a different color! :-)

I'm looking forward to getting back to my sewing queue, fashion posts, and blogging routine, but until energy returns and healing happens, doing a bit of hand work on the sofa is more my speed. 

Have a great week, everybody!

    Congratulations. She is beautiful ❤️. Will you be dressing Betsy vintage? I love your blog. I don’t dress vintage but still look forward to seeing your makes. I do however sew vintage for my granddaughter. She has a very long torso so ready made is not a very good fit. She is five. When her clothing is not me made, she says accusingly “My Grandma didn’t make that and wants something that is. She says it’s comfy. I’m usually make from the 60’s-70’s. She gets so many compliments.

    Oh, how precious! Congrats to you and your family!! Glad all went well. Looking forward to seeing her in the dress to match yours. (I am seeing more vintage mommy-and-me makes in the future) What does your son think about being a big brother?

    Welcome Baby Betsy! My baby Betsy is 12 years old now and ready to start seventh grade tomorrow. Baby Betsy and her dress is adorable. Did you know that Liberty Fabrics has a fabric called Betsy? It’s very sweet.

    Congratulations on your new baby!!!! I just had my third baby in June. A girl too. 🙂 I too tried wearing vintage during my pregnancy, but never looked pretty as you. Now I’m waiting for my waist to return so I can start some pretty dresses for myself.
