Bella's Heirloom Chenille Quilt

I told myself over and over as I was making this that it would be the last time. 
It takes a lot of patience, and spending all of my hours with a two year old doesn't leave a lot of extra for sewing projects. 
However after HOURS of sewing and another hour or two of cutting, I LOVE this blanket. I don't think the pictures do it justice, but here they are: 


So, now, I'm excited to make another one. :) And Annaliese is right. You HAVE to think of it as a quilt or you will go nuts. Here's her amazing tutorial for creating this quilt: http://www.aestheticnest.com/2010/08/sewing-heirloom-cut-chenille-baby.html

This quilt is for my friend, Kori's baby due in June: Annabella Grace.

Monster Lamp

Well, we'll just ignore the fact that I haven't posted since July. I have a very strong willed toddler on my hands. And I'm a terrible person. Moving on. 
I've been crafting like crazy. Trying to get my etsy shop going again. Have to try to pay for my crafting addiction! :) You can see a lot of the stuff I've been working on in my shop.
In other news, I re-did a $3 lamp for Owen's room. The lighting is kind of lame, but my camera options are pretty limited right now. Hopefully you can get the idea!
