Made With Love

We are so blessed that Jackson has so many people who love him and think of him so often. He has many hand crafted gifts from friends and family. One of those special people in his life is Mama Karen. She is a truly talented woman with the gift of crafting fabric and textiles. Jackson has been especially fortunate to have a handmade original Mama Karen quilt with various vintage vehicles. (We hope to make this the center point of his room when we redecorate.)



And his knit camouflage blanket had been with him since he was one week old. It is just right for our autumn afternoon walks.


Jackson just over 2 months old 'hiding' in all his camo gear.

Most recently, Mama Karen found Jackson an amazing pattern for bibs during her last travels. The pattern is unique in that it is extra long and has tabs that loop around his legs for extreme coverage. And the prints used for the bibs are totally Jackson....(and Daddy approved!) We love that it catches all the bits and pieces during mealtime and keeps our little muncher extra tidy. (Not that Jackson is one to let any morsel go astray, but sometimes a few slip by...)
And we are all so blessed that Aunty Brenda's Momma Froese is such a talented seamstress and can interpret all those pattern symbols and such. She zipped them off in no time. They are our favourite bibs!



Thanks to all who love our little boy as much as we do and gift him with so many handmade treasures which we truly cherish.
