She’s here!!

Baby Emma was born on October 27th. She was a whopping 8 lbs 6 ounces and 22 inches long. Everything went well besides the 25 hours of labor in the hospital.

Emma is a little over two weeks old now so I snapped a few pictures of her on the latest quilt I completed.


This is a cheater quilt that I started at a guild sewing night. I saw the fabric print on someone’s blog (can’t remember who) and knew I needed to make this for the baby! It’s perfect for tummy time. I quilted it using an all over stipple and backed it with a Kona cotton solid. I saved the binding until I was “too” pregnant to feel like doing any other sewing so I finished it just days before Emma’s late arrival.
We’re all adjusting to being sleep-deprived and I almost feel like sewing again!
