I'm a Big Boy Now!!!!


Well my son turns "6" this coming week and so we did his room makeover this weekend.  The first picture is the before picture with his toddler bed and car theme.  The easy to take down border paper was a lie....I've sworn myself to be border free for the rest of my life.   

Here is his Big Boy Bedroom



It feels so good to have the room painted and done - but the true success will be if he stays in his own bed all night long!!!!  Happy Birthday Ryan!!!

Very Expensive Scrappy Quilt

I finally finished this scrappy quilt that I have been working on with some friends.  I got it all clipped this weekend and was excited to get it washed and dryed to see what the frayed edges looked like.  My advice would be to do this via the laundry mat.  I didn't and am now the proud owner of a new front load washing machine.  I guess the quilt was too heavy for my 15 year washing machine and burned the pump on it...so much for my inexpensive quilt!  Linda
