Slide


Ethan's gotten the hang of going down the slide with minimal help from me. He can climb up the stairs, walk across the platform, and is learning how to sit down at the top of the slide (I have to help with that part usually). He also tries to say slide, but it sounds like "ssssslah" and he always says it in a whisper...it's too cute!

Finishing projects

That's been the goal around here lately! And here's one I've finally finished after a loooong hiatus from quilting :)
It's a small lap-sized quilt that is getting shipped off to my grandparents in California. The fabric is called Tranquility, by Moda... I just love the mix of colors. I used Kona Cotton in Cream for the sashing. It's a basic stacked coin pattern from Moda Bake Shop's website. I did minimal quilting since I have another stacked coin quilt in progress that I plan on quilting all over with wonky straight lines, and I like do try new techniques with each project!
