Today's post is brought to you by the color orange, the letter H, and the number one. Brings me back to the days of Sesame Street. You?
One. One little orange onesie. This delicious orange onesie was dyed in my kitchen many moons ago and stored in a drawer for such an occasion as this. I put a little H on it for my new friend Hope. Hope's mommy used to babysit my girls when she was just a girl herself. My how time flies.
One. One Ruby Bloomer. I paired the little orange onesie with another set of Ruby Bloomers. I really do love this pattern. Since Hope is just a wee one I cut the pattern down by a generous inch on all sides. By doing so I made the bloomers so they would fit 0-6 months instead of 6-12 months.
One. One orange-a-rific Daylily. I like how the Ruby Bloomer and the delicious orange onesie look together, but no one does orange better than the Creator. Look at this Daylily. It's the most glorious color of orange. In real life, the color of this lovey defies description. Yes, it's orange, but it is sooo much more than that. Deep. Stunning. Affecting. It makes me do a little gasp when I look at it.
That's all for now,
Cassie

Inquiring minds want to know how the stitching stayed white on that onesie!!! Very, very cute Ms. Go Girl -- as always. And beautiful flower -- there's nothing like a beautiful flower!

Such sweet orangeness. The *H* is perfect and the bloomers look perfect with the onsie. You do good things.

All three are just beautiful. It's so much fun to sew for little ones and that gorgeous lilly is the perfect inspiration!

I gasped! It turned out delicious - I love the color orange. The combination with the colors of the bloomers is a winner. Carolina
