about the piece.
November Hope's 1st outfit that she will never get to wear. They were the first items i knitted when i found out i was pregnant. The blanket they are laying on was the first sewing project for my first or second miscarriage. - Kami
about the artist.
Kami is a stay at home mother, who describes her journey, "I have had three miscarriages. I have two children. My last loss really hit me hard, it took a little over three years to get pregnant and then to just have it taken away was devastating. I had a feeling that the baby would had been a girl and November because that was the month we had the miscarriage and Hope because that pregnancy was full of Hope." Kami blogs at So. Cali Mommy Sewing & Knitting Blog and Dreaming of an Unassisted Birth.
Very poignant.
ReplyDeleteI have things from my pregnancies that I couldn't part with, and so they're boxed away because I couldn't keep seeing them all the time anymore. They are some of the most powerful things I own. My half crocheted baby blanket from my second one if the one that really gets me, because it was a process that ended with the pregnancy.
Thank you for sharing.
I have a outfit that i had started after that outfit sitting on the needles that i don't think i can bring myself to finish. The loss also got to me since a month after i found out a relative's 17yr old daughter found out she was pregnant when i was loosing November. I still can't believe that 3months have already passed since loosing her.
