Nora Joy is here!

So THIS happened over the weekend!
Warning!  Baby picture heavy post with the little sewing I did get done at the end.



Even though her little face is still a bit swollen, I think she's gorgeous!


7 lbs, 10 oz,   19 1/2 inches


So alert on day one!!



What did I get done sewing?  Just this . . . Struggling with those sharp star points.   Pretty happy with the circle though!  Let's hope my applique skills start improving as I move on.

    Oh she is so sweet!! I love chubby newborn faces! Have fun snuggling. (The piecing is adorable, too, but let’s just focus on that beautiful baby.)

    Hi Janice! Welcome to the world Nora Joy. I wish you a happy birthday, and I can see you are welcomed with open arms. Look at the love on mom and dad's faces - not to mention your cute sisters, and grandma and grandpa. Many, many blessings and good wishes to the family. Nora will be growing in leaps and bounds so she can keep up with her sissies in no time. {{Hugs}} to you Janice - I'm thrilled for you. I'm also thrilled that mom and baby are doing well. ~smile~ Roseanne

    Awwwwww, she is so sweet!! And that mouth? I already see personality in that tiny mouth and lips. I have two granddaughters and they both share the middle name Joy.
