Camera-less

So, my trusty digital camera and I have broken up :( He left me after a good 3 years together... we did everything together and we sure had some good times. Of course, as in any brake up, it happened at the most inopportune time... on our yearly family vacation this summer. I've tried and tried to get us back together but it looks like we're split for good. In this in between time until I find another good match, I am forced to use my digital video camera which takes amazing video footage but terrible photos... hence this photo of a new quilt in my shop. It does seem to capture the cute quilting but does not do well with colors or clarity. This little quilt is amazingly gorgeous but you'd never know that from this picture. The daisy eyelet white is super bright and clean and the lavender is so lucious... which you miss too. This is so not my style of photos :( Well, off to find a new camera! Wish me luck!

For the Little Princes out there


Well, this adorable baby boy quilt was just one quilt that was supposed to be for a school's charity silet auction. Sadly, they had to cancel their charity event wich leaves 3 gorgeous quilts available in my shop! This one is just one of my favorites for a little boy. As a mother of a 2 year old little boy, I've noticed that etsy's baby items are much more geared towards little girls. I have to admit that I'm guilty of that as well... it's fun to make things for girls with all the color options and "girly" fabrics out there, it's so hard to resist! Not to mention that most of my sales have been for girl blankets. I love this classic blue and brown combo though... so European to me. take a look at it in my shop and you'll also notice the other new additions as well that were ment for the auction. I've also included a gorgeous quilted throw for all you mamas too! The Bella Baby quilt above and my mama size throw in harmony flowers are the start to a new line of "cuddle plush" quilts and blankets. I've discovered an amazingly soft backing fabric that I'm so excited about! Check it out and take advantage of some amazing quilts!
