baby gift sets

this past weekend, i went to a great baby shower for an old friend [i've known her for 20 years!]. it was alot of fun, many of my school friends were there, and it was great to catch up. for my gift, i made a little collection of goodies to welcome wee baby emerson to the world.
i've been thinking about adding a gift set to the shop for some time, so it was really fun to put it together and see how it takes shape. this set is made up of a fabric bucket, a single cloth block, and a onesie, all monogrammed with 'e'. i loved using these particular fabrics, i knew they'd fit in really well with the nursery scheme, modern + sweet, grey + pink + brown.


i am hoping to have the first set listed in the shop later this week. i'll start with the 'stone birds' set, and follow up with a boy version, and a gender neutral version as well. i'm thinking i'll offer monogrammed or not, for those who don't name their baby beforehand ;) what do you think?

Beautiful!
Please could you tell me what the name of the birdie fabric is that you used for the Es on the onesie? I have been hunting for a similar fabric...
