It has been a while since my last update. I have been busy going to the cabin, visiting with friends & family, playing soccer, shopping, organizing, preparing for visiting family and of course crafting.

My mom and I have been crafting for my niece and nephew who are coming, TOMORROW! 

The first weekend I was home we finished decorating the little reading nook in the kids room at the cabin. The room is white and green and my mom bought a really cute stencil to brighten up the little corner. Oh and I broke my nice camera so the pictures are not the best quality, sorry!

 I forgot to take a true before picture so here is the best I have.

 It turned into this. How cute are these little flower trees. 

 Yep flower trees that's what they look like to me

The second craft we did was more my style. A quilt! Yeah you heard it we finished a quilt already. But I tried something I have never done before. A rag quilt. It is a much quicker way to get a quilt done, and since it is made of flannel it is super cozy. I had my first trip to the fabric store and it was fun! Just looking at the flannel was exciting but that section was not even a tenth of what the store had to offer. I wish I had more time to shop but I will have to go back again, darn. Anyways back to the quilt.

 We loaded a cart full of kid friendly flannel.

 Set up my grandma's sewing machine (because mine had not come in yet) and put my mom to work. 


 Within 24 hrs we had this. It was all sewn together but then we had to snip, snip, snip. 
Then wash, wash, wash. 

 Sophie tested it out for the kiddos. She thinks it's nice. 

I love the ruffled edges

I hope the kiddos like it too!  

When my sister gets here my life will be turned upside down. So I will either be crafting up a storm and have a lot to share, or I will be busy chasing kids and you may not hear from me for a month. Only time will tell.
