Any Day Now!

Aliya should be here any day & I'm getting more & more excited! As well as nervous :) Josh, I think, is very nervous & probably doesn't know what to think about all this. I've slowly made progress with the nursery. I got her name all finished. I was going for a dark wine color but they turned out more of a purple. I didn't feel like painting them again so I just left them that color. I made some very small green dots out of vinyl which made this project super easy! You just peel them off & stick them on the letters & you're done. The best part about the vinyl is if you don't like the way it looks or the color or anything about it, you can just peel them off. Vinyl comes in just about every color too so in a few years if I want to re-do them, I can & it won't be a huge project. Here's a couple pictures of the finished letters & the fabrics I'm using in the nursery. Hopefully my sewing help will come help me soon & we can get the bumper done! She can sew straight lines.. I can't. LOL. So it's been really great to have help & hopefully with some practice, I'll get better at all this sewing stuff. But the nursery is starting to look very cute & I can't wait for it to be done!



Today was one of the very first days that it felt & looked like Fall! This morning I woke up & my view of the lake was covered with fog but it was still so beautiful. Perfect Fall day!

  1. I found some tutorials online for making crib bumpers. I used it for my cat bed :) I had no idea you had a blog. Funny. Sewing straight lines is easy thats why they have guides!
