A Little Preview

Today I am thirty eight weeks pregnant. Everything is happening so fast and I can't believe there are only two weeks until my due date. Incredible.

We are all ready for her arrival -- her room is 90% finished (just waiting on some furniture), I've gathered all we need for the home birth & I am 110% ready to take on the world.

Last night I was arranging a few thing in her room & thought that I would share my favourite little corner with you.



01. My favourite photo of my partner & I. I think it's kind of nice to have a picture of her parents in the room -- it's very much a feel the love sort of thing.
02. A very small acrylic painting that I did in my third year of university.
03. A gorgeous print from Double Parlour (a gift from my dear friend, Iris).
04. Take one ornate gold frame, add one 8x10 piece of pretty fabric and you get a simple piece of textile art that takes about fourteen seconds to create & display. I have more of that fabric, but I haven't decided what else to use it for -- any ideas?
05. I have taken all of my newborn sized clothing out to be washed before her arrival. Don't worry -- I have a ton more 3 & 3 to 6 month clothing just in case she isn't so small.
06. My little moses basket is sitting on the change table.
07. Her book collection is already growing & full of wonderment.


A little closeup of the textile art. I'm so very much in love with this fabric.

Have a fabulous evening everyone.

Just fourteen more days!

Fabric is lovely. Perhaps a pillow case for a small pillow in her room? I made one for my oldest to use to prop my arm on the rocking chair. Used it allll the time.

2 weeks is so exciting! Can't wait to see her little face and fingers and toes...

Oooh, a pillow is a good idea :) I could use it with my glider ^_^
