Marie Antoinette Baby Basket

Pink Silk with yummy mint trims.
I enjoyed making this Moses basket, working with lace is so much fun and the ladies here like lots of it.


Here some lace and ribbons, with mint green flowers.








Oops! I forgot to put the pillow in the basket.




I found some beautiful cotton material a few days ago and I bought the whole roll, 30 yards...
Knowing that when I get a few yards and go back for some more, I won't find it, it will be sold out.
It is pure cotton and the colour is perfect, bla, bla, just to find more excuses why I keep buying stuff..


 The material is the perfect colour, beige and cream so it matches with most colours.


I decorated this cushion with a cross-stitched initial, this design of cushion is easy and doesn't need a button because it folds over and hides the opening.

  4. Dearest Angela,

    Can't get over your talents! The embroidered initial in cross stitch makes it just perfect! Such nice personal touches and you were right on the fabric; that will not come around often as pretty as this is...

    Lots of love,

  8. Just gorgeous! I just redid the baby bassinet that has been in our family for 60 years! Mine turned out good with a white satin hood and ruffled lace to the floor but yours is a step beyond! Thanks so much for sharing. I think I will put the bassinet on my blog also. It never occurred to me to put it on the blog. Duh.
