...and I'll probably have made 2 or 3 more before summer begins. It happens -- all these people reproducing and then looking at me sadly as if to say, "but you made so many for all those other people, and I'm your friend too.....".
This one is particularly special though. It's for Kathryn, and it is made from the double-sided dupioni sash that I wore as the maid of honor in her wedding. All I had to do was sew it around the rings and add a pocket (in this amazing hot pink silk that I could NOT resist.... it was like a beautiful slice of cake, sitting on that shelf in the fabric store...). Then I decided to go with black rings to bring out the shine of the silk:
and so I settled on a glass button (which is purely decorative, the pocket has a velcro closure).
I can't wait for the new baby to poop on the silk.
