I find that being at home with baby is quite the self-discovery trip. I guess, it has been a long time since I had the luxury of time to think. I feel I am getting to know myself better as well as feel more comfortable in my own skin. It is strange as I have been closet insecure most of my life. (Great at hiding it though).
So, today I realised how big a chip I've been carrying on my shoulder. So not wanting to conform, me nor my baby. This is the first handmade thing I made for my first born child, my darling son:
I mean don't get me wrong. Despite it not being the best, I am very proud of my creation. It is the first garment I have ever made with my own hands. Not only that, but I actually adapted a cardigan pattern (found here and here) and turned it into a vest (let me know if you need a hand with that) And I did this all by myself. . But seriously, what was I trying to prove?
Oh well, onwards and upwards. Boy hasn't tried it on yet as it was on the big side. I think now might just be about time so I just washed it for him to be wearing soon. Hmmm, I could even post a picture.
