New one layer, lightweight crib blanket/sheet coming very soon....

This slight change in line-up is purely customer driven!  I have had so many requests and orders for very light blankets, for people who live in the hotter areas of North America, that I have added these to our blanket product line... to be on the websites soon.

Single layer muslin blankets and blankets from our new ultra-light sheer muslin (all organic of course) are perfect for just a little cover without adding any heat.... thank you all for your great suggestions and requests!  Anytime you want to add a suggestion, please, please let me know... I love feedback :)

An example:
The hummingbirds featured below and on a previous post are done on the ultra-light sheer muslin, 28" x 36" vs. the swaddling blanket size at 40"x40"


Hummingbirds at last...

This little swaddling blanket didn't make it onto any of the websites, as it was part of a custom order I just did and that they finally received.... the postal strike, in Canada, certainly made for some interesting order fulfillment issues... boo!  And from what Jen said, she is very happy with her order for her "coming soon" bebe :) Below the hummingbird shots are a couple of the Bluebirds in a Sweetheart tress done in greens rather than blues as originally done.  I won't be doing anymore of this particular motif, but will have a slightly different version coming soon..... the photos are very light as both were printed on the Ultra-lightweight sheer muslin and I should have used a darker background for them... but hopefully you can still make out the details... the hummingbirds turned out really well and I am so pleased with the motif... just not thrilled with my abilities as a photographer!!





Finally getting back into the swing of things again!!!

The last month has been fully of all sorts of unexpected events, but it looks like things are back on track again with all good news.... I am feeling so much better (and thank you to all of you who sent your kind thoughts for getting well) AND Botanical Bebe has a new home.... Yahoo!  My new studio is very spacious, light and airy and a real joy to work in... so stay tuned for a lot of new products hitting the webs sites very soon.

Here is a peek at our new digs (no more studio at home... an end of an era!)
