Show and Tell Friday~Hand Held Memories~ Memory Quilt

I just completed this last night. I am pretty pleased with how it turned out. My friend at http://www.thecutesymom.com/Blog.html embroidered the border on this for me. I am swimming with tons of ideas of how to team up with her on other items.

For now, Enjoy the quilt. Also notice the special detail...that each hand is a different size to match the picture of the child it belongs to. ♥

Also, I have a treasury going on at Etsy. It's a Creation Theme, and I would love it if anyone would give it some love! ♥ http://www.etsy.com/treasury_list_west.php?room_id=54715

New Baby


(I Cannot Believe it)! gasped New Daddy. It was (9:00pm) and baby was awake for the (14th) time today. New Mommy had been (dutifully) (folding laundry), but rushed to check on New Baby. "No, no," said New Daddy, who had been relaxing by (cleaning his guns). "I'm always (ready) to help with the baby. I'll go." New Mommy was (relieved), since this was only the (1st) time that New Daddy had offered to help. In fact, New Daddy was more inclined to snack on (Pizza and IBC Root Beer), while sitting on the (Three Headed Couch), watching (24). New Mommy knew that she should (gratefully) accept, because New Daddy might not offer again!

Now Go Play! :)

Sweetie's Pillow

When I went to buy my new serger, the kids had to wait a pretty long time. And poor tiny boy had a fever. :(

As we were waiting....a nice lady in the Husqvarna dealership gave the girls a generous "scrap" of embroidered fabric.

They were *SO* thrilled! And to boot, it matches their room's decor! :)

So the other day, Sweetie and I worked on her pillow. After working all afternoon and most of the evening (with a little break in between) here is the finished product:

The Front of the pillow
The back....which was a scrap from my stash

And Bean had to get in the picture too! We work on her's next! :)

Fabric Hair Bows

Some new Pretties are being offered on Etsy for an unbeatable price. $3.50! You won't find these adorable hair bows at Wal-Mart! Little girls LOVE these. Two customers have received these bows, and they both have said that their little girls ADORE the bows....that it makes them feel special.

And my little girls think they are the best thing too! ♥
