Easter is almost here and most of the baskets are finished! Only two left to go-one for my baby niece and one for a local customer.
Keep checking back for more baskets after Easter. I’ve got some really unique ones coming up! Thank you so much to all of those customers who think my baskets are worth the wait for next year. I really look forward to making them for your little ones!!!
Just a few notes on some of the neat baskets above-McGuire’s basket has a completely unique font-one that her mommy had purchased just for her! I love the scrollish extra swirls on it-it looks elegant and certainly feminine! The french knot stitches certainly give it justice! Also McGuire’s little bunny has a pretty pink satin ribbon that ties just above her soft cotton yarn tail-this ribbon also allows McGuire’s mommy to tie the bunny to the side of the basket. Since little McGuire is a baby it will ensure that the bunny does not get lost or misplaced till she is ready to play with it!!!
David’s basket is actually my middle guy’s basket that I made him last year! I made these little finger puppet chicks to give out to my youngest little one’s preschool class. They loved them! David’s basket looked so cute with them, though, his had the most cute little yellow chicks on it!
Connor and Cole’s baskets were so much fun with the funky fabric and the dotted wrapped stitch names done in two different coordinating colors. Perfect for older boys! Cole’s mom has opted to send me his basket back after the holiday so that I can add lots more embroidery-a guitar, a bunny on the sand (they live near the ocean!), oh how much fun will that be?!
Lexi’s basket has the soft pink chenille inner liner with the outer liner in white with her name done in french knots, trimmed in mini white puff balls, with the side ties a pretty baby pink with mini white puffballs along the edges. Lexi is a new baby-only born early March! Lexi’s mommy also wants lots more embroidery added to this classically feminine liner.
Addi’s First Easter will be comemorated with this fun limey mint hand painted wooden egg personalized just for little Addi! Also, check out the one for little Avery done on the pink egg.
Claire’s basket has the prettiest polka dotted fabric on the inner part of the liner-it reminds me of the swiss dotted fabrics as a little girl! The outer liner shows off Claire’s name done in french knots and surrounded by pink lilly of the valley flowers. The little bunny holds a lilly of the valley herself!
Charlotte’s basket shows such a colorful display of spring flowers that it just makes me smile! And do you see the little pumpkin off to the left? That’s baby Charlotte’s sweet nickname from her mommy and daddy!
Christian’s basket is a soft blue and has a bunny under a tree on one side with a piggie by a fence on the other. Both sides have pretty blue and yellow spring flowers and little birdies checking out the scene. The little bunny in his baby blue short alls has a “C” on his shorts to show that he belongs to Christian! He also comes with his own little mini basket!
Lachlan’s basket is the first one I’ve sent overseas! Little Lachlan and his family are currently living in Australia but still have family back here in the States.
Amanda’s basket and liner was the first girl basket liner that I made this season. I couldn’t wait to use the fun fabric on the inner liner. I even edged the outer white liner with some of the same fabric.
Katie and Amanda’s names were both done in a French Script font-it’s cursive, a bit formal, but fun for girls that are a little older! Katies liner is done in a gorgeous aqua damask and has beautiful truquoise/aqua flowers with the little bunny on it’s outer liner.
So many people were kind enough to allow me to send them their liner “half finished” this year! This way their little one could have their basket and yet I would have more time to finish extra embroidery. Thank you so much! And thank you again to all of the great customers who have already placed orders for post Easter Easter baskets. I am so lucky to be able to work with such wonderful customers to create such unique baskets.
