My earliest memory of Lizzie was when I was in high school. She was in fifth grade.
She was telling us how she only liked older guys. She would not go out with anyone younger than sixth grade. Spunky, hilarious, and apparently mature beyond her age.
Fast forward to now. Years later. A cute wife and sweet mommy of two adorable kids. Picture perfect, right?
But now her sweet little girl needs help. She's fighting Alpha 1 Anitrypsin Deficiency, a genetic disorder that causes liver and lung failure.
And now, after three weeks in the hospital, she has H1N1.
Read about this sweet girl, London, aka Lulu here.
Of course, things like this cost a lot of money. You can read about how you can help with the "Liver for Lulu" fund on that blog, too.
Cyd, Lizzie's sister (and one of my favorite friends ever) asked if I would make some onesies for the cause.
I still like my birds, so I stuck with them. I also tried out the ruffle butt onesie from this tutorial. Besides ironing them all before I took pictures, there are a few things I would do differently but isn't that how crafting goes?
On each onesie I put a little birdie on the back and a little, blue "liver for lulu" sign wherever it fit in.
I am still trying to create a "brand" for myself. That day, I liked, "cyi made." I came up with a logo and put a little label on the back of each one. But I still can't decide. I am so indecisive. I need more feedback.
These ones have been sold but If you want me to make you one with the two birds in a cage, I would love to. If you need it for a baby boy, I can make it in black, too. I have sizes 0-3 mo., 6-9 mo., and 12 mo.
For $15, I will make it, wrap it up cute, and send it to you, and all of the money will go to help sweet, tiny, Baby Lulu.
