Well, it's official! Today was the day of the 20 week ultrasound and the sex of our new grandbaby is.......female! I'm thrilled - now Bridgette will get to have a best friend for the rest of her life! Sean says that, since his house is being overrun with girls, Patrick will have to live with them the rest of his life.
Now I can start thinking about a baby quilt. I found a cute pattern today that has Cuddle bowties on it - it's in a book that I bought. And I've thought of another quilt that was inspired by a quilt in a magazine. It has applique flowers on it in three rows, but I thought maybe putting one row of flowers and a second row of sky, sun, birds, etc. would be cute. We'll see.
Beth, at Tiny Stitches, made the cutest door mats for her daughter and her daughter's roommate. Her daughter, Jessica, is getting a big heart with her name and lots of smaller hearts on it. Her roommate, who is an artist, is getting a paint palette, with a paintbrush thru the opening and pots of paint (and, of course, her name on the palette. Both of them are adorable.
Well, I had dinner with Bridgette tonight - and now I'm home alone. Gene is somewhere in a meeting. So, since I'm alone, I think I'll get busy cutting the fabric for the big squares on Patrick's quilt.
Oh, the best thing of all - Daniel is home. He and Ashley, Patrick, Kristen, Sean, and Bridgette all came over last night to celebrate Gene's birthday. It was so good to see him and know that he's home.
Time to go and change clothes and cut!
