Oh, Jen, she is soooooo cute, peeking out of the blanket. Have fun with her! They stay "baby" for such a short time!

I'm keeping up with reading everyone's posts, and seeing all of the wonderful rows. Unfortunately, not making the rows. But, I am actually working on April, May, and June right now. I'm having fun and loving them! It's good to not have to do "show quality" for a while, and just enjoy the process!

Jen, she's beautiful!!! Congratulations, and I think I speak for everyone when I say take care of yourself and that sweet baby girl, we can wait on our rows (well, ha!, I was your first, so easy for me to say, but still....).

Lotti, have fun on your trip! Love seeing my envelope peeking at me How fun! No worries on "late" mailing.....same here, so I can't complain

June/July/August for me went out in yesterday's mail -- yay! Back on track. That means Dorothy, Limbania & Rosemarie, your rows are on the way

Posy/Rosemary, you are my September, and I emailed you a question when you get the chance or want to reply here. I was wondering what special size rows you need/want sent? I saw the original sizes listed in your photo album in the group page, but haven't seen/can't find any update if you've received any of the special sizes, which ones, or any tips/hints for if I make a special size, where is it going so I can tailor it to that location, etc., etc.....I'll work on your row once I hear from you

Heather, I started writing a reply late last night, but haven't got around to sending it, so I will reply here. Because Terrie & Rosemarie sent fq's I have planned on using them to make the 'different' sized rows that I need for the construction of the bog coat (thinking of turning Terrie's into 3" maple leaves for the cuffs by the way). That leaves the regular 36"(finished) strips for the body, either going around, across the back, or if it is blocks that can be divided in two, across the front. Final layout to be decided at the end.

Also I haven't yet posted pictures of all the rows I have received in the group album. Will try and get onto that tomorrow. Hope that helps you...

Following on from Heather's request, I checked out my rows in the group page and found that I three missing from the lineup hmy: They are now added to the album.

I am trying to get the sand out from between my toes, and hope to get my 4yards of beach finished and organised (all those at the beach will have adjoining spots to lay your towels on -it's just how my brain went). After that 'not the chicken pie', but I wanted to make sure that I didn't get sand in that too :P

Look what I got in the mail today! Thank you so much Heather! I LOVE the stamp fabric!!!

This is what I've been working on, so I'm behind on my rows, but will get caught up soon :blush:

Marilyn,
Thank you fir the lovely row. I think it will look especially nice next to Terrie's contribution to my quilt.



Not the best picture day,,

[Jennifer D.]

Haven't checked in for awhile so thought I'd post a little update today. Thank you all for the kind words and thoughts you've sent my way here on the forum and via e-mail.

Long nights....long days...not enought sleep....but worth every second.



Took time to capture some professional photos this week. Looking forward to seeing the rest. Daddy returns to work this week and I'll be on my own during the day. Not too worried since the big brothers will go to daycare still - they do better when their schedule remains the same - but I'll won't get my guaranteed nap anymore. Abby recently discovered the swing and seems to like it, but not as much as my Moby wrap (a large piece of soft fabric you use to bind the babies to your chest leaving your hands free for those of you that have not seen one)...I told my husband that I'll have to find a way to use this drab piece of brown fabric in a quilt when Abby outgrows it - it has now carried all 3 of my babies and even though the color isn't vibrant the memories within the fabric are. The swing and wrap are great when I want to get things done around the house, but not something I can use when I want a nap :S the only nice thing is that I'm used to functioning on little sleep (unlike daddy) thanks to my years in med school and residency. My mom has been great about dropping by once or twice a week with food - so I'll take advantage of those visits and catch some zzzz's if needed.

Picked out some fabrics to use in the rows I've fallen behind on...will try to catch up soon! Meanwhile, I love seeing everyone's posts! One of the Big Brothers is just waking from his nap now...(the whole household crashed for about 1.5 hours and it was GLORIOUS). Going to head back into the chaos of giggles, sticky kisses, baby gazing and tickle fights. Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Jen - Wonderful picture!

Take care - Barb
