I had

I had... a little stack of Japanese fabric. linen... purchased just in time from here. bought to make a gift. a little baby gift. It is sometimes hard, to choose the right thing... you want the gift to be worn, you want the gift to be liked... I thought... I decided... I cut... I sewed...

little red birds... all in a row perfect for Spring I lined it... with a neutral cotton, for a little warmth on chilly days...

and it was finished with a tiny vintage button.

a raglan sleeved kimono style jacket...

from this book ...simple,but delightful,

for a new baby, that I am soon to meet...

Every child begins the world again....Henry David Thoreau
