This week has been a struggle for me. Though I can be quite an emotional person in my head, I almost never let emotions get the best of me. Blame it on the pregnancy and my increasing inability to get a good nights sleep, but I have been a wreck this week. Yesterday, for example, [...]
Quilting and Getting Things Done
I have made quite a bit of progress on the crib quilt so far. I have all the squares sewn together, and need to go shopping for a fabric for the opposite side. The quilt is 32”x52”. I think it will be an appropriate size for the crib, which is about 27”x52”. Now that I [...]
Week 30
Yawn! Russ and I just got home from a fun weekend in Palm Springs–and we are absolutely pooped! It is 5:00 PM now, and I am struggling to keep my eyes open. I am going to try my hardest to make it until 8:00 before I turn in for the night, but that may not [...]
Away
No Friday Favorites today. I didn’t have the time to get it all together–next week’s will be double the excitement! I just thought I would make a quick post saying I would be away from the blog for a few days. I should have another blog post up either Monday or Tuesday. I hope you [...]
Week 29
I have hardly had the time to get this week’s picture taken–and posted! I would have gotten it up yesterday, but was feeling groggy with a massive headache the entire day. I really didn’t even have the energy to go out to dinner like we had planned. We did still celebrate Valentines day–with take out, [...]
A Quilt for Baby
This week’s crazy idea was to make a quilt for baby. I had browsed Etsy a few times, as well as the thrift shops, but was finding nothing I liked for her crib. After seeing some beautiful (but pricey!) quilts on Etsy, I decided to give it a stab. On a whim I bought several [...]
Friday Favorites
Ahhhh, Friday. What a week! Looking back I can’t remember what I did, but I know I didn’t spend it all in front of the television wasting my days away…..right? It seems like there is so little time as it is, I have worried a bit about how it will be when the baby arrives. [...]
Week 28
I seem to have abandoned the idea of making vintage maternity clothes. It was a nice thought in the beginning, and I love seeing other people wear them, but I now also realize why those smock style tops are not popular today. Firstly, they only now are really starting to fit me in a way [...]
Friday Favorites
Happy Friday! I hope you all had a lovely week. Mine seemed to fly by, and I am happy to say that I have gotten a lot more done this week than I did last. Fingers crossed that I can keep this energy up for many more weeks to come, between sewing diapers, finding a [...]
Sunshine Dress
I had a doctors appointment this morning, where I was happy to find out that baby is measuring right on size. She isn’t a giant, yet, I am just being paranoid about the whole thing. It is hard not to though, especially since I just found out from my aunt that my grandpa was a [...]
