frames


I covered these frames I painted years ago. These took way longer than I thought it would. but they are almost done. Now I just have to get Paul to hang them. I also need to put cute pictures of Gracie in the pink ones. In a year from now they will be all the same with one new born picture and their one year photo. My boys look nothing alike it makes me laugh.

A few things I didn't make

Some of my friends and I got together for dinner. They all gave me The cutest girl things like dresses, warm outfits, toys and other baby things. I just have to show off a few handmade gift I love. Lara W. makes these hair things for flutterby.net. I was hoping she would make me some. As you can see she made me lots and I love them . Lori L. got a sewing machine for her birthday this year. She made me these cute burp cloths with minky and ribbons.


Little Boys & Blue Out/Pretty & Cute In

Paul said I couldn't buy another crib set. There was no way I was going to let my little girl be surrounded by trucks, trains and planes. Now you see trucks, and now you don't. I took left over scraps from other projects to welcome my little baby girl into this world. I only took a month of needle work. Someone said to me don't put so much time in just a bumper pad that is only going to be used for a few months, I just had to. I made it double sided. When the baby out grows it I am going to cut it down and use the panels in a toddler quilt for her. Its amazing those little scraps and time will be a memorable piece for her.




Receiving Winter

Winter is coming and so is Gracie.
I made her a receiving blanket so she could be nice and warm.

Another Blanket


"Another Blanket" says Paul. Yes, something little and easy and really cute for our baby that will be here with in the month.
