Projects galore!

I've been working on a number of smaller boy projects which I'll probably have to post all at once but I'm very excited to report that Abby's quilt came back from the quilter absolutely stunning!  Karen King of www.ilongarmquilt.com did an amazing job for a really good price -- and that included shipping it to Washington State!  It came back last Saturday (and we went and got ice cream to celebrate) and then I did the binding on my sewing machine and Voila!!  It is done!
 Her quilting is exquisite and I love the pop of the pink thread on the white border.

 Abby's bed, made up beautifully.

 And Abby's bed with everything on it!  Quite a difference right?

I am sad that it's not in the room that (eventually) Megan and Abby will share together because I've been working on adding pink to the tree and pink butterflies and found the CUTEST lamp shade at a thrift store for $3 so when they finally are able to share a room (i.e. when Megan stops torturing or Abby can actually defend herself) it will be the cutest little girls room EVER!

In the meantime, I've got 3 months to figure out where this baby boy is going to go!

Gorgeous!! Don't worry about finding a place for baby boy yet. You have 3 months of pregnancy + the first newborn period with you... My (oldest) SIL says, "Babies don't care. They'll sleep anywhere." My youngest SIL had a room that was a converted closet for her first two years.
