Introducing...Jackson Riley xoxo

Born June 29 at 8:06 pm...and I was privileged to be there. What an amazing gift!

'Freedom'

I was drawn to the pattern of these twins with such pokey faces. The wings are made with muslin, a bit of batting and then quilted. Afterwards you soak them in coffee with a bit of Stiffy product and once dry (I baked mine for a bit), the wings are like a piece of cardboard...quite amazing. I could hardly believe how well it worked!

I can't wait...

I am so excited to meet this little guy who is hiding still in mommy's tummy! Please don't keep us waiting too much longer! xoxoxo It's so hard to believe my "little boy" will be a daddy any day now! Happy Father's Day, Jared!

stuff!

Are you ever overwhelmed by how much "stuff" you have? I am at that point and I am so ready to purge, give away or sell, just to feel 'lighter'! It bogs me down because I don't have the time or energy to keep it clean so I always feel frustrated. Here I go...it'll probably take me weeks to get to the point where I am satisfied with my progress. Sometimes it takes something to remind me, we are here for such a short time and where am I storing up my treasures? Right now, most of mine are right here gathering dust...

Wow, when I see my sewing room from this camera view, I wonder if I could be on the reality show "Hoarders"!

Santa 'Believe'

Finito :)

Keeping focused...

Thou wilt keep him (her) in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he (she) trusteth in thee.
