I continue slowly but surely working on projects around our house. It’s fun to see it come together and makes me feel just like Donna Reed in It’s a Wonderful Life. (side note: I love that movie and I love Donna Reed. I want to be her when I grow up.) This weekend, I embellished…
circle quilt – part 1
This week while waiting around for the dryer repairman to come for a visit (I was told he’d be here between 8-5 sometime between Tuesday and Thursday), I sewed a quilt top. I followed this tutorial from Cluck Cluck Sew (the girl is a genius!). The only modification I made was that I made my…

note to self
Next year, when I’m not in a teensy tiny apartment, I want to decorate for Christmas like this.
Guess what I finished?

You truly don’t know an adorable baby until you’ve seen Truman. He’s beyond adorable. Oh heaven help me……
