Handkerchief Bonnet!

Hi Ladies!

Well here are some pictures of the Christening bonnets & poems. She had gotten two of these bonnets & yes I did use both of them for her Christening. Didn't want to jinx this by only using 1 bonnet & then she picks the one I didn't use, so I HAD to use both. She has plans for the other one, I guess she's like her mom she doesn't want to jinx tradition. Hehehe! Will tell you about that after the wedding, nothing like getting teased hah? I hope I remember all that I want to tell you after the wedding. Think that I will remember all this in a few months...I don't know, so you will have to remind me people!!! I think this is a fabulous idea with these bonnets, don't you? So we will have to snip those stitches & make it into a hankie, that's the next step!!!

Well talk to you tomorrow. Thanks for stopping by today. Enjoy your day!

Hugs...Rita
