Nap time means sewing time

Lately I've been able to take advantage of L's nap time so I can sew, although there are many times when I wish I could just sleep for a few hours, too.

I have all my squares cut out for L's quilt.  I love the clean design of this pattern and now just have to decide on the layout.

Two pouches made today!  


The yellow fold-over pouch is on it's way to a dear friend as sort of a "replacement" for Thor chewing her hat when she came to visit back in January.  Why do Labs have to put everything in their mouth?

 I'm going to use the gray one for myself to keep all of my computer cords and adaptors together rather than having them all over the bottom of my school bag.  Trying to be organized!

Mobile

As I was searching online for DIY ideas for L's room, I found this bird mobile pattern from Spool and totally fell in love with it.  It took me maybe a total of two hours to make, not including the walk I took with Thor to find the sticks.  The mobile hangs right over L's crib and he loves looking at it.  I am so happy with how it turned out!

Mobile for Baby S.

We are trying very hard not to spend a ton of cash getting ready for Baby S., and I knew I wanted to make a mobile for his room.  So when I stumbled upon this the other day, I knew it would be perfect for his room! I've made some of the birds already with some scraps of fabric and Spool's super easy pattern.  I'll post some photos when it's all done.  I can't wait to see it hanging in his room!
