I have some great news to share......I am pregnant! Our discussions of having a third came true.....Surprise!!! Good surprise, but we were both shocked as we were not trying. My husband likes to say I wanted a surprise for Valentines.......Here you go! There are times that it seems surreal that I am pregnant again. I swear my belly just popped out, knows what to do I guess.....Even the morning sickness, just like the girls, I never know when it is going to hit. But I am coming out of the first trimester and sailing into second trimester bliss. Olivia is so excited. She was giving me a hug one day and I told her that when she hugs me she hugs the baby so now she always asks me if she can hug the baby. It is so cute, she is such a good girl. Vi doesn't really get it, she will soon! The baby is due November 1st......but as both of the girls were very early we are thinking it will be in October. My doctor encourages me to lay low this fall. Not that easy to do with the girls and work but we will make it work......we are very excited and blessed!
Now, I have been meaning to get some new photos up of the projects coming out this spring.....
This is Carmen.....
It is a simple quilt that can be translated into many colors. I really want to make it out of solids using white where the dark brown is and then using oranges, lime greens and yellows in the pieced strips. I just think it would be a great spring quilt to put on the bed...brighten the room. Since it is so simple I figure I actually have time to do it. I doubt it will go on our bed the shop will get it first.....maybe next year.
Carolyn and I shot the quilt at Brittenbush Hot Springs. It is on the way to Eugene from Sisters.....I had actually never been there. Great place! So close that it could be a day trip from here in the summer for a change of scenery........
This is Delila........
Delila is a combination of the traditional with the contemporary twist. The large prints mixed with the log cabin block make for a great quilt that is easy to put together. 
This was a little house at the lavender farm....very cute.
The last pattern is my favorite.....
Pillows, Pillows, Pillows.......My girlfriend made a great statement to me one day that inspired me to do a pillow pattern. Andrea said, "Recovering pillows is a great way to change a room with out adding more stuff." How perfect is that! Who needs more stuff.....we don't! But our living room could use a change so I made a bunch of covers for our couch pillows. The pattern has directions for my pillows and basic directions to cover any pillow you have.......lovely little Jewels for your Home!
Well, more later.........Have a great evening.......
XOXO
