Finally a quilt

I think I am a wanna be house wife. I have been reading all these blogs where mothers have been doing super human things. They sew, work, bake, take care of 7 kids, volunteer and not to mention find a cure for cancer. I on the other hand get out of bed at 10.30am in time for breakfast at 11.00am. Though, I do get up for half and hour with baby TJ at 7.00am before we both head back to bed. You can still find me in my PJ's at 5pm.

Before my six month maternity leave started I had heaps of things that I wanted to do....honestly I haven't done anything except for finally starting TJ's quilt...I have been meaning to make a quilt for baby TJ since I found out I was pregnant. Now he is nearly four months old and I have just started. I did have good intentions....I bought the material 8 months ago. It took me 2 months to decide what colours... my husband can tell you that I am not very good at choosing colours. If you ask him, he will tell you about the time I insisted on a red/white mat for our living room by the time we got it back home it didn't match anything. Costing us a fortune the mat is still in our living room.

I still insist that I am very good with colours even though hubby will insist otherwise. I ended up deciding on a blue and green quilt. Can't go wrong with those colours for a baby boy especially with cars on the fabric.




















Getting back to the point, I do admire all the mothers that seem to do so much. One day I will get there. At the moment I will be happy enough to just finish my quilt.

Ciao,
Bananas
