oh, so lovely!

i got my package today from jessica and oh, my is this little monkey ever so lovely!! my daughter almost claimed our new friend, but oh, no he has his new home in our living room for everyone to oohh and aahh over. :)

this adorable little quilt also came with him and it is just as lovely. i can't believe it has my favorite fabric in it, the hr mushrooms!! THANKS, JESSICA!!!


this week i worked on a patchwork valance for my girls room, and just got it finished this morning. i quilted it so it would almost look as a quilt was hanging in their window. i love how it turned out. now i just need to get the perfect rod. :)

the banner i also did this week and it was a quick and easy project, and adds a wonderful touch to the window as well.


i did a larger stipple than i usually do, since i wanted it to be a pretty quick and easy project.

the banner hanging in their window now. i just love the colors, so bright and cheery!

hope everyone has a wonderful valentines day!!

  4. Oh Kerri, the valance and banner are adorable!!!
    lucky girls you have! :o)

    Also stopped by to let you know that I have finished 2 beanies (one boy and one girl) and also made a few flowers for each of the girls, but I wasn't able to take a picture because I finished them too late, the sun light was already gone.

    Take care and have a good weekend.
