Same stuff...

Quilts and baby!

My mom made this one to send to Quilts of Valor. It's the BQ2 pattern from Maple Leaf. I stippled in the cream background, did a leafy vine in the purple sash, and outlined the flowers in coordinating thread. I thought the backing fabric was perfect - you can see it along the bottom. Baby K walked up to me this morning while I was at the computer and announced "I did it!" showing me her tower...

4th of July was quiet. We took a quick trip down to Grandma's to swim, then tried to have our annual anniversary dinner at Pappadeaux's restaurant. Unfortunately, K was hyper after the long drive and Daddy and I took turns letting her run around on the outside patio. Came home and watched the Boston Pops fireworks and went to bed early!
