My beautiful butterfly



Here are a couple of pictures I took a few days ago of Kjerstin wearing her butterfly wings she got at Christmas. We have another set of wings and Kehan loves to join in the action.

Butterflies remind me of the project I will be starting after Easter! I am making Mya a new blanket and I just could not walk out of JoAnn's fabric without these butterfly prints! They just screamed Mya! It will be a fun one to make using the Whacky Nine pattern that I made a previous baby quilt from. I am going to use two sets of blocks though to make her a bigger blanket than the baby quilt because she is almost 2.5 and will like a bigger blanket.

So this is kind of a vent...I love to make blankets as I have said before and wish I could just spend at least one day a week at my sewing machine without interuption, that being said, I don't get to do this so I get an hour here and there to do projects. Quinten last night said again for what seemed like the 1000th time, "How many blankets are you going to make?". I said, "How many different animals are you going to hunt?". Hunting is his hobby why does my hobby have to be questioned? I don't ever say much about his hunting and he gets to go and do whatever he wants all the time! Ok so enough of that. I love him with all of his quirks but sometimes I just have to put it out there when I am frustrated!
