Getting Things Ready

There hasn’t been much sewing going on since my last post. I did start a quilt I was hoping to have finished for V-Day

Cutting the squares and getting the heart laid out was as far as I got, because the night I started this I went into preterm labor and was put in the hospital. I was released after 2 days with orders for strict bed rest and put on meds. The goal was to stay pregnant until at least 36 weeks if not 37. We hit 37 weeks yesterday and little Hartley is still snug as a bug in my tummy.

While on bed rest my Mother-In-Law came down to stay with us and to help us get things in order just in case.

We still have to get the changing table painted and in the room and hang stuff on the walls and buy the nursery chair, but all in in all it is coming together and I LOVE IT!
