Joseph's Cover of Many Colors

Joseph advanced to a twin mattress on Monday.  In our family that earns you a mom-made blanket to fit the bed.  This has got Joseph all a flutter!

We went through my bins of fabric and chose the brightest colors we could find.  I cut out 48 12.5" squares of fabric.  He'll need sunglasses just to fall asleep at night!

Wow.  I don't even know how I am going to make sense of it all.  Anyone want to help me tie it next week?  :)

Signs of Spring

New babies, flowers buds, laundry on the line, kids on the hammock: all signs of Spring.

I think this is the earliest I've ever been able to hang laundry to dry.  It snowed yesterday and it will probably be snowing next month.  But today it is Spring!
