I finished the baby quilt that I am sending off to Craft Hope, I don't know if a boy or a girl will get it so I went gender neutral...aquas, yellows, a little bit of pink and a little bit of blue....after I had the top all sewn together I realized that I have bird and bee fabrics in it...I thought that was kinda funny (the bird's and the bee's), I took a pictured of Emily's baby doll modeling it all swaddled up, I hope it makes some baby very happy and snugly warm....

The kids and I have been keeping ourselves busy this summer, we have had some hot days, some cooler days and a few stormy days....earlier this week we went to the Amtrak station to see a free traveling exhibit from Disney advertising for A Christmas Carol coming out in November. The kids and I really liked the exhibit and then a little movie to watch of some previews, 3D glasses provided as you can see Jack is wearing his upside down, silly boy.

I think I must subscribe to almost 100 blogs, almost all of them crafty in one way or another....yesterday or the day before I noticed a posting about Craft Hope and I clicked away, I hope you do too. I am going to make a quilt for a baby in India, for a baby that would not normally have a blanket to be swaddled in, can you imagine?
I am done having babies, no more for me...but I love babies and I can't wait to get started on this little number. The thing I love about this...I have so much fabric and batting in my stash this will cost me NOTHING but the postage to mail it off but what do I love MOST about this? The thought of a little boy or girl having a blanket wrapped all around them, some comfort, some warmth from this momma that will probably never know them or see them...once a momma always a momma......
