New Grandparents

Dear friends of ours became grandparents for the first time.  Such moments in life need celebrating, so I decided to make two rocking chairs for the new grandparents.

My apologies in advance as this is a long post, with lots of photos.

The die used:  Sizzix ScoreBoards XL Die - Chair, 3-D #658985

I made a book and some glasses for grandad’s chair and some knitting for grandma’s.
