We haven’t meant for this to be a secret, but we are expecting! Yep, both Whitney and I (Angela). We are due just days apart. I’m due at the end of June and Whitney is due at the beginning of July.
And if that wasn’t exciting enough, we are both having girls! Whitney has the cute Penelope nursery bedding from Pottery Barn for her little girl’s nursery. I thought that I would make her a mobile to match her bedding.
It has hand stitched birds and hearts, each stuffed with cotton balls to give a more 3D effect.
It hangs from a wooden hoop that I covered in lace.
I love this mobile!
*This was my audition project for SYTYC. You may have seen it over there. Competition starts in a few weeks. I’ll give you more details on that when it begins.
*Also, any interest in a pattern for this mobile? I’d be happy to share one.

Great job! So much nicer than "ready made"!
ReplyDeleteI just found your link on Pinterest and I was wondering how you hung this on the wall? Did you gather your ribbon, knot it at the top, and hang it on a hook screw?
ReplyDeleteHi Angela,

Hello Angela,
ReplyDeleteI just found this on Pinterest and just LOVE this mobile. I just had a baby girl 9 days ago and was wanting to make this mobile. Do you still have the pattern you used by any chance, I noticed this was back in 2013.
Thank you so much
