we rock!






Grandpa brought an unfinished wood rocker for the bebe's first birthday present a year ago; it's just taken awhile to get these photos up . . . 'cause I'm easily distracted. :)

I stained it with green water-based stain with the letter "P" taped off. The little starbursts were later carved in with a Dremel tool.

The little quilt was made for Christmas, 2010, though I started it the night I went into labor with the bebe in February of that year. It's cut from strips of my Spoonflower fabric designs, as well as several commercial prints.


(p.s. you can make these photos bigger by clicking on them . . . but you probably knew that!)

nostalgia






FOUND: vintage 1960s Fisher-Price chime ball, just like the hand-me-down one we had as kids. The chimes, when it's floating in the tub during the kiddo's bath time, sound softly, reminding me of the chimes on our old front porch in hot, hot southern Oregon summer, barely moving in the hint of a breeze.

Purchased for $5 at the thrift store a couple of weeks ago; it still had the $2 garage sale tag on it too, a good reminder to hit more yard sales this spring.
