Rowdy Reptile


Matthew's best friends from high school, Wesley and Hilary Whitaker, are expecting their first child in May! The Whitaker's live in their hometown, Bonifay, FL where Wesley works at the Bank of Bonifay and Hilary is a dentist. She graduated from the University of Florida, so it only seemed fitting to make a little outfit for their, rowdy reptile!

I used the Maja's Heirloom pattern, "Corey's Bubble" and the smocking plate "Gators" by Ellen McCarn. Since the pattern has minimal smocking, I think it is perfect for baby gifts, especially for boys because you never know if parents are fans of this style of children's clothing! Plus, the pattern is very easy to understand and quick to work through. I think it could be finished from beginning to end in only one day! So, I have lots planned for this little pattern! 'm sure it will be one of my favorites. I can't wait to give it to Hilary at her shower on Saturday! Happy Easter!
