A Table Full of Colour!

Just a few photos of our display from the Mom2Mom Sale we attended on the 11th.  What a wonderful time we had making new friends and meeting lovely mommies and babies!  It is such a treat being able to share our creations with others.  If only I could express just how much love we put into each and every thing that we make.  Creating pretty, colourful things for our own family is something that makes my heart smile!  Being able to do this for others too, is a real honour.

We did not make many changes to our display; however, I was busy crafting some new wooden photo displays before the show: "Family is everything."  Those sold like hot cakes!  (Mmm....hot cakes...now I'm craving fresh crepes with strawberries...yum!)  I will definitely be making more, and would love to include personalized options as well.  

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to see us, and a big thanks to my best friend, as well as Grandpa for babysitting!

Happy Victoria Day to all of our Canadian friends.  Enjoy your long weekend!

Coming Soon to the Shop: Wooden Growth Rulers!

From the Carpenter (and Vonnylein):

Coming soon to our shop, for local purchase only: Wooden Growth Rulers!

We have had fun creating these, paying attention to the little details such as font style, sanding, and even in how the ruler ticks are drawn.  These really are a labour of love.  (I had to give up my sewing table for staining purposes, since our weather has been so cold until now.  That in itself is love!)

Currently we are making striped and chevron style rulers.  Personalized styles are definitely an option.  

Here they are!

The little babes are waking up.  It's another happy Wednesday!

Project: A Quilt for Baby Taylor

Several weeks ago I shared with excitement a stack of beautiful quilting squares I had waiting to be transformed into something even more beautiful:

  Then I posted photos of my favourite part: quilting by hand with my Oma:

Any now, without further ado, here is Baby Taylor's first handmade quilt.  I wish I could show you how perfectly it matches the nursery.  My sister-in-law has phenomenal decorating taste!

Pretty blue buttons.  :)

My first attempt at mitered corners.  A success...hurrah!

The 'girliness' of this quilt looked so at home in Baby J's room, that I almost had trouble gifting it.  

I'll just have to make another!  You never know....  ;)

Happy Sewing!
