A new project, and a new favorite blog

When Jarom graduated into a big boy bed I made him this awesome quilt with trucks and cars, and... now I feel like it is a tradition that I want to keep going. So, even though Taysia is still perfectly content being in her crib, I decided to start working on one for her anyway. When I stumbled across this blog, I just had to share. They share all kinds of tutorials, have incredible material, and create stunning quilts.

Ignore the fact that it is not ironed, isn't laying flat, and that our room is a mess, also that it is a twin size quilt, laying on a queen size bed. I was just SO excited with how it is turning out, I couldn't resist taking a picture to share!
(and check out Piece N Quilt... after all, that is where I got the idea!

That is a beautiful quilt - you are incredibly talented! It has been fun to see what Amy does as you teach her new things.

thanks Jessica, (I love it too!) one of Thayne's favorite past times is making log furnature. He made this one for my last birthday in November. Now I'm just trying to convince him to make us matching nightstands.... and a bunk bed and... ok, I guess time has a little more to do with it.
