RSC Saturday - where did the month go????????

Yikes! I have not posted a brown RSC at all this year. I had to remedy that this week so I quickly made the sampler row blocks for the month.

We went to the store to see Daddy last night with the thought of doing a mobile cookie booth but it seems the girl did not bring her sash with her... so they cleaned the store, Aidan did some research for his career day project and we took Daddy out to dinner at Moes Southwest Grill. It was kid night and they had someone making balloon creatures for the kids. Aidan asked for an elephant and Emily asked for herself - holding a phone talking to the world! Silly girl - but it does look like her.



I found the seam ripper - well 2 of three. The pink one is somewhere in the house. The seam got picked out and fixed from earlier this week and the borders put on. I just pieced the backing and now need to find some batting then a trim and pinning so I can quickly quilt it. Dark pink for the binding I think. I should have it done for the baby shower on Wednesday evening. Little Charlye was born very early and weighed a little over 2 pounds in late November. She came home last week at 81 days old and is doing great. Mom and big sisters are all in scouts so I added the daisy's to the border since I know she will be a Daisy some day.


Linking up with RSC Saturday morning.

I always loved balloon animals! Your kids looks so cute and obviously delighted with theirs :*). Love the little hearts baby quilt. Any little one who had fought so hard to thrive deserves a beautiful quilt filled with hearts!
