Needlework Monday - A Sweet Handmade Baby Gift From A Fellow Needleworker!

Happy #NeedleWorkMonday dear friends! Isn’t it an amazing feeling being able to buy, sell and trade goods using cryptocurrency? These are really exciting times and I’m so thankful I am apart of this Steemit plattform. I have met some Amazingly Talented Steemians and have been blessed with the opportunity to own some of their handmade work.

This first Steemian I’m posting about is @horazwiwik who was so generous and kind to make this sweet baby gift for me. She wanted to gift me with something special to welcome the baby and to show her appreciation for me creating #NeedleWorkMonday. However me living in the US and her living in Indonesia the shipping rate would be pretty high. I really wanted to have this diaper bag for our baby so I offered to help pay for shipping. She agreed it was okay for me to pay my half in SBD.

Here are some pics of this beautiful handmade bag that she sewed for me...

It was neatly and beautifully packaged.

I’m in love with this bright and bold colored elephant print! She let me pick the fabric I wanted.

Side pocket...just the right size for her bottles.

This is the top view where instead of a zipper she used a drawstring with tulips on the end to close the bag. I really love how she fashioned this.

She even surprised me with an extra treat...a cute little matching fabri basket to hold small items in.

I am excited to start carrying around her baby bag! She hasn’t left the house yet since arriving home from the hospital. Our first family outing with our newest member will be this Saturday as we are attending a friend of the family’s baby shower.

One thing about custom made gifts is you’ll never see anyone else with your item (unless they order the same thing lol). That’s why having a skill like this is so special. I am so grateful I get to meet and connect with so many talented people. It’s an added privilege to be able to buy, sell and trade using earned digital currency.

If you would like to read in more detail about our exchange and see some of @horazwiwik’s process pictures sewing the diaper bag you can read about it Here!

Since I am showing off sharing about @horazwiwik’s beautiful handiwork half of this posts’ payout will be transferred to her! 😊 Thank you so much for my special gift dear friend~ 💜
