Still Here!

These past few weeks have gone by so fast!

The baby is due in 1 week and 3 days. I can't even believe it. I'm so anxious for the baby to come, I don't really know what to do with myself!

Our condo complex has a little terrace with gorgeous vines growing up the walls. I've been wanting to take some pictures down there before the baby comes. We had fun :)

Wooli Bottom

I saw these gorgeous books on iiiinspired awhile ago, and I've wanted to do some bookbinding ever since.




However, I feel a little bad lately using my free time on anything except baby things, so I made a little wool diaper cover instead! It turned out pretty cute.

I used a wool sweater from DI that I shrunk and felted in the washer. It used to be gray, but I accidently put it in with a blue and red blanket, and it turned purple! I love the purple though. James looks good in purple, so I'm sure Babyboy will too. It's super duper soft, and the felting makes it waterproof. I even tested it. I can't wait to pull it over his little bottom!





I sewed it by hand, so it took me a couple hours, but still a pretty quick little project.

Secret: I'm a little terrified of sewing machines. They move too fast and stress me out. Maybe someday I'll be brave and really show the machine who's boss, but for now hand sewing is OK.
