For Maddie with love

I can't believe how fast this week has gone by! Thanks to the Queen's birthday we had a public holiday on Monday. Hubby and I ended up not doing any of the things we planned (shopping and cleaning) instead we slept in and pretty much lazed around the house all day. That night we went to see Terminator Salvation (loved it!) and had dinner to celebrate a friend's birthday. The whole time I felt myself coming down with something and before you know it I have the cold! That meant the next 2 days at home sick. Hubby was so sweet making congee and freshly squeezed OJ for me which I think contributed to my speedy recovery.

In craft news, I had just finished crocheting a wee little beanie for baby Maddie from church. When I was almost done I tried it on her to see how far I have left to go, I realised her head is actually bigger than I thought! hahaha let's hope it will fit her this time. I got the pattern for the beanie from a Patons crochet book courtesy of Mia. As for the flower and leaves I got the pattern from Attic24 who's one talented lady when it comes to crocheting!

I wonder if Maddie will like her beanie? I'm imagining her to look like these cute gumnut babies :o)

When I was in primary school, my friends and I were obsessed with May Gibb's gumnut babies. We would draw Snugglepot and Cuddlepie in class all day :o)

Have a nice weekend!
