Laila's Space

Well, I've been a little busy with life in general, and haven't had an opportunity to post anything.  Laila's space is still a work in progress, but I have made a lot of progress.  So far I have made a valance, noteboard, crib bumpers, dust ruffle, pillows, blanket, name pennant and a quilt. Take a glimpse! I only have a few more things to finish, and hopefully, I will get them done before she makes her grand entrance!  If not, no worries, the main components are complete!  The rest is just gravy.

It's a new year!

Many like to make resolutions or "Goals" as I prefer to call them, when the new year comes around.  Well, I am no different.  One of my main goals is to invest more time into my creativity.  I want to do "something", no matter how small or "insignificant" on a regular basis.  This blog is my way of not only keeping track of it, but also to share my journey with others. 

As I am anticipating the arrival of my daughter Laila Grace in the coming weeks, my first undertaking for the year is all about her.  I have chosen to make all of the items to decorate her little space.  Sure, I could buy them, but that just wouldn't be my style.  Plus, I'm always making gifts for friends and their babies...why not my own. 

So far, I've done more than I thought I would at this point.  I've got a few more things to go, and as long as my energy allows, it is my hope that I get it done in the next week.  If not, I've still accomplished my goal.
