(If your name is Dawn R., and you are very wonderful and have a pretty baby girl named Esther, please do not read this blog post. You know you have something coming to you and that something is pictured below. Thanks.)
I’ve finished a couple of exciting projects these past couple of weeks, and I am so excited about them. First is a monster. On a shirt, of course. I sketched some aliens/monsters/robots up a couple days ago on paper, and transferred the drawings to fabric.

Fun is had by all. I am so pleased with how these turned out.

Best of all, Asher loves them.
Here is my above-mentioned friend, Dawn, with her beautiful baby girl. We all love this baby so much!


And here is a little quilt that I stitched up, finished just a couple of days ago.

The center squares are from a favorite etsy shop of mine, whimsiedots. Vintage bed linens, cut into three-inch squares and framed with Kona cotton (can’t remember the name of the green for this).

A tiny superman at the end of a very long table.

He really loves his Superman pajamas. Especially the cape.

Not sure what’s going on here, but it looks like fun!

We’re pretty full swing into summer here, and with that comes one of our favorite parts of May in North Carolina:

Strawberries! (Not cats. Although this is our neighbor’s cat and we love her.)


Another big part of summer that we love is time outside. We love doing many of our family activities outside (eating, talking, exercising) but probably one of our favorites is reading.

We get out the big blanket, gather a pile of books, some pillows, and pick a shady spot.

Since another favorite summer past-time is thrifting and yard-saling for books, we feel pretty set with reading for the summer.
