It is harder for me to give some things up, than I'd like to admit. I'm short on quilting time these days, and it takes a lot of time and I put a lot of myself into making a quilt. When I had just started and all I had was mountains and sky, I really wanted to put a big star on top of the mountain and keep the quilt for myself! But I resisted. And I hope Baby Bell and his parents love the blankie.

Baby Bell
My neighbors and good friends The Bells are having their first baby in October! A little boy. They are great people - she was born and raised about an hour away from me, they moved across the street from us from the same city in VA we moved here from, and they let us swim in their pool. These are just a few reasons we like them. They are both Air Force folks, and have a little airplane theme going in the nursery. So off 'a quilting I went. And I even remembered to take pictures before packaging it up to deliver at her shower!
