Sunny Days

I finished this quilt for a fellow teacher who is due very soon. She doesn't know if the baby's a boy or girl and I think these colors would work for either. The picture isn't the sharpest, but I finished it late Wednesday night and gave it to her Thursday, so I had to snap a quick picture Thursday morning before work in not-so-ideal conditions.

I made my neice this swim suit and towel bag for her birthday and got it off in the mail this week. I can't get enough of that fabric.

And we had some great sunny days last weekend and this week. It felt so great to be out in the sun. I can't believe we only have two more weeks of school!

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day! I was surprised with a day out yesterday. Kevin made an appointment for me to get my hair cut at the Aveda salon (I love Aveda). After that I stopped at the fabric store to pick up some fabric for a dress and a skirt. Then I went to the grocery store to get some gluten free chocolate chip cookie mix and bread mix. I've made the cookies before and although compared to the cookies I usually make, their just OK, compared to the nothing I've had since I've had to go gluten free- they are awesome! I'm looking forward to making the bread.

The washcloths are my mother's day theme this year. The ones above I crocheted for my grandma using Sugar and Creme. I am so making some of these for me.

And these I made for my mom using four different crochet patterns- a half double crochet stitch, a double crochet, and two different shell stitches. For these I used Lion Organic Cotton and it is so soft and snuggly. I couldn't afford to make a whole blanket with this yarn, but a washcloth takes up one skein, so it's the perfect gift.

And Claire made pictures for everyone.

Last night I started a snowball quilt for Matthew's teacher. There's only 4 weeks left of school and those are going to be so busy- I hope I can pull this off- the blocks so far are a little more tedious then I though because of all the small squares at the corners. But I got it all cut last night and the blocks pinned but not yet sewn. Well, if it doesn't pan out I could always give her washcloths!
