Baby Boom

It's official. Just about every female I know is pregnant. Ok, not quite - but pretty darn close. Baby bellies are popping out everywhere and it's not just baby on my brain. Believe me, I've been there and done that 4 times!

Though, it is fun for me to have the chance to make fresh baby things! A friend of mine will be having a baby any day now - here is her bedding that I just finished.



The baby boy's room is a vintage modern style with clean lines and prints paired with bold vintage inspired artwork on the walls. So fresh and fun!


I used just one panel of these Curtains from IKEA for the bumper pad and ties.



Instead of one long bumper, there are 4 pieces (2 long sides, 2 short) to make washing easier. You only have to wash the side that gets dirty - what mom wouldn't love less newborn baby laundry?!


and fabric by Etsuko Furuya: Echino Chelsea in GREY Deer Forest for the blanket.



She wanted just a blanket made instead of a quilt - but I did some different quilting to add interest to the fabric as well as hold the layers together. I used a large and small circles as templates and stitched them in a random pattern across the entire blanket. It's kind of hard to see in the picture, but it turned out pretty nice.



And here's my baby posing for a picture.

Congrats to all of the soon to be mommies! Babies are so much....fun!

Pretty Bird....Yes, Pretty Bird

Check out this super suave nursery! I found it at The DIY Showoff.



I'm in love with this little birdie mobile. The mixture of fabric and raw wood is so refreshing. If I could sit and stare at it for hours and blissfully drift into dreamland, I'm sure a baby would too!



(By the way, if you know what movie my Title is from, tell me in the comment section! You just may win somethin pretty I've been working on.)
