Ta- Da!

Here it is! I spent 8 hrs sowing this together yesterday. Its a baby quilt for my friend- her shower is next week. I wanted to get it all done, and its not yet. This isn't a very good picture, you can't really see the patterns very well, or the colors, but you get the idea anyway. My back is sore from being hunched over. I didn't have a pattern, or directions. I've made a few before, but I always had directions, or my mother in law to hook me up. I'm surprised how well it turned out for winging it. I still have to finish the back, but whaever. I'll get that done tomorrow or something. My mother in law in the master, she can make anything. I'm just learning from her. My hubs bought me a sowing machine for Christmas the first year we were married, and I was like "What do you think I'm going to do w/ this thing?" I'm not sure I had ever even seen one before. Nobody does that sort of thing in my family, and I'm certainly not crafty. So it sat in my closet for 4 yrs. Finally my m-i-l guilted me into taking it out. Its not so bad. I was cursing a blue streak last night, and the seam ripper was my best friend, and I wanted to throw it out and quit right then, but the almost finished product made it worth it. I don't know when I'll want to put myself through that again. We shall see who gets knocked up next, if they're special enough to make me want to suffer for sentimental reasons.
So, I've got nothin' else.. Here's some pics of my girls. Been awhile since I posted any pics. Have a good weekend! Shit. I wanted to put the girls here, but so what. Never puts them where I want em'. Anyway- later..
