Funky Baby

I have been commissioned to make a cot size quilt as a gift for an expectant mother, who is expecting a baby girl. The brief was, must be funky! So this next quilt is named "Funky Baby".

Here are the fabrics I've selected which just arrived in from America:-

My client sent a message today on the fabric selection saying "Love it love it love it", which is great we both have the same vision!

Now I can't wait to get cutting out & start the design process!:)

Day at home

My poor little man had a rough night last night, with a raging fever & the sweats. Cheeky Charley also had a rough night & today feverish.

This was our calling for a home day - yippee! Dropped big girls off to school, then headed straight home.

My little boy spent most of the day on the couch & Cheeky Charley had two big sleeps.
So I managed to sneak in a bit of sewing, started preparing two  new quilts - one will be cot size for a baby girl and the other will be a girls single bed size quilt. I'm really loving the blue fabric with flowers & think I will incorporate it into both quilts.
Cooked up a shepherds pie - good comfort food.
My eldest daughter had year 7 NAPLAN testing, so when she got home I treated her to a "luxurious bath" to unwind!
Besides little ones not well, had a rather good day pottering!
Hope you all enjoyed your day & are keeping warm.

My day

Beautiful day was had in my little home today!

Flowers, little homemade pressies & new sewing box, brekky cooked by my eldest daughter along with a lovely table setting with a rose & gorgeous note on my plate.

The afternoon we had drinks on our deck with my extended family.

I felt very blessed yesterday to be surrouned by all my wonderful wonderful family.

Hope you all had a special Mother's Day with loved ones.

Happy Mother's Day

We wouldn’t be here if we didn’t have a mother. Mothers love us, they feed us and nurture us, they give us life, they raise us as best as they can, they encourage us and forgive us.

Most see Mother’s Day as a day to thank mums for being there and for being so special. And it is a day for everyone to sit back and celebrate their mum.

I understand that not everyone will celebrate this day for one reason or another. Mother’s Day can be a hard day for some women. Mother’s Day brings back so many feelings of sadness and happiness and everyone will spend today with memories of the past, thoughts of today and we all look to the future.

What ever your day beholds, I hope you receive some joy and happiness in the day ahead & spend time with loved ones.

Follow your heart

The last stitch was complete last night, just in time for bed time!

Night sweet girl, hope all your dreams and hopes come true. I love you with all my heart!

This quilt is for my adorable baby girl, Cheeky Charley.

"Follow Your Heart, dont let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
