"Baby Blake" - Handmade Baby Announcement Embroidery Gift

A Special Baby Announcement Gift

Back in August 2022, I had the honour of creating a custom baby announcement cross-stitch for my daughter’s Kindergarten teacher, who had just welcomed her first baby into the world. This piece was such a joy to work on, and I’m thrilled to finally share it with you!


A handmade, custom stitched baby announcement, completed using cross-stitch and freestyle hand embroidery techniques. It shows "Blake" and her birth details, surrounded in a dainty, floral border.
Look at how precious this is!

The design features a sweet crib scene at the centre, surrounded by a delicate floral wreath. I personalised it with the baby’s name, birth date, and weight, adding those final touches that make it truly one-of-a-kind. The soft purples and whites were chosen to give the piece a timeless and elegant feel, perfect for a nursery.


Here are some close-up shots of the details:

  • The Crib: I loved stitching the little baby nestled in the crib. The tiny pink blanket was especially special to bring to life with thread.
  • The Floral Wreath: The white roses and greenery added a touch of texture and beauty. They were created with freestyle embroidery stitches such as the stem stitch, cast-on stitch and fishbone stitch for extra dimension.
  • The Personalisation: The text is stitched in a simple and clear font -which you can download for free- ensuring that the important details stand out beautifully.
