Baby Fox Edward Fun Stuff
Fox Edward was born on Monday, June 19th. He joined his two older brothers in a family filled with much love. Basset hound Bea was waiting for him to come home and be welcomed with many puppy kisses. Of course, Bea also looks forward to food he’ll drop on the floor in a short time. ~smile~ TaDa, here is Mr. Fantastic Fox as his mom calls him:
Isn’t he just precious and perfect and adorable and well, fantastic?!! ~smile~
Welcome Fox!
Sue made Mr. F Fox his name on a wall hanging. His brothers also have their name on a wall hanging for their room or door or wherever they chose to hang it. Sue also made this sign language hanging for Fox. We try to introduce different sign language symbols for each boy (mom’s language, too) – the other two have Mommy, Daddy, Thank You, etc.:
You saw the fox wall hanging before, in an earlier post about the fox wall hanging. Sue was going to add his name to that wall hanging but we had it finished before we knew his name. Turns out it would have been fine – but who knew. We found both the pattern and fabric in a quilt shop in Whitewater. It was just perfect for this project. I love it when everything falls into place.
One of my favorite sign is I really love you. It is very appropriate for him to have it as he certainly is very loved. ~smile~ His grandma and Aunt Rosalie took the gifts to the family. It was past time for both of them to meet Fox. Almost a week old before grandma got to hold him?? What?!! His brothers are coming to visit for dinosaur school for a week. That will allow mom, dad and new baby (and Bea!) to get accustomed to life in general and maybe a routine. We wish them all the best and happiness. ~smile~

This is a super sweet quilt for a super sweet little one. Thank-you so much for stopping by my blog and leave such a sweet comment about my memory quilt. I have heard the bride to be is already using it.
Hi Joy! I am so glad to hear the bride loves the quilt. How could she not?! Love from her grandpas and you – that’s a winning combo. That you so much for your comment and stopping by! Please come again. ~smile~ Roseanne
oh my gosh! Stop! how did you do the “I really Love you”? I’m guessing no pattern that you did this yourself?? I have my associates degree in Deaf Studies.
Also, I love everything else that was made too! I got too excited and posted my comment before I was really truly finished. That happens a lot. haha
HAHA – I’ll have to find the pictures for Mommy, Daddy, thank you and please for sure. You will love how they turned out! I think they are so old they’re on a camera (!!) – they were made only 4 years ago at the most. ~smile~
Can’t wait!
Here is a link to the photos – I can’t figure out how to just post pictures here without a new message . . . so they’re on FB https://www.facebook.com/pg/homesewnbyus/posts/
Haha ok I’ll have to look when I’m not on my phone! Thank you 😁
Hi Tonya! Get out of town!! His mom was born deaf, so Sue and I have been exposed for 30 years or so. It is my favorite sign, and Sue is a first grade teacher with many books showing the signs. We just traced over one of those, outlined it with a cross stitch. Boom. Done. ~smile~ Roseanne
I will have to get a book out sometime and see if I can do it 🙃 thank you!
I am 100% sure you can!! It’s a cinch – really! If your fabric is too heavy to see the lines through it, hold it up to a window or if you have a light box – either will work.
That is one gorgeous baby! Adorable! Cute wall hanging! My girls taught there kids sign language too, it is wonderful to communicate before words come in.
Hi Pam! I am biased, but I can be – he’s not mine. I think he is just beautiful – that complexion is perfect. Mom and baby are doing so well too – she was born deaf so it is just natural to the kids. ~smile~ Roseanne
