Today was the first day in ages where I physically felt like myself. I kept forgetting I was 38 weeks pregnant and ended up doing a ton. I cleaned a bunch, finished the laundry, worked on a couple quilts, went shopping, went to lunch and sort of helped my brother do yard work (I might have felt good but it is still awkward to try to rake with a ( Read more... )

I haven't done a Ron of quilting this year. First I was so sick from morning sickness, then we were working on the baby's room, and then my mom took back her sewing machine since I wasn't using it and she had a pile of projects to work on.

I have a cold and pretty much spent most of the weekend avoiding giving people my cold and staying home sewing. I was able to get an entire quilt too done, the backing sewn together and all the binding needed. As soon as I clean up from my sewing frenzy I'll be pinning the quilt and hopefully getting it quilted soon.

It is nice to have an easy ( Read more... )

So, it seems like everyone around me is expecting. It is pretty exciting (though a little sad for me). Anyways, my best cousin forever is having a baby in April. I am really happy because they have been trying for four years. Anyways, I am going to make this baby a quilt.

Last week I won some fabric which I am going to use. I just need to get one ( Read more... )
