The artwork is (mostly) up.


I am not an artist. I like to cheat and use fabric as art. It's foolproof. And anyone can do it.

I used things I already had: a swatch of the toile from the crib bumper, a pillow front I made but never used, and my newly embroidered e. I put them in the same hoops I used for Stella's nursery. What can I say? I know what I like and I stick to it.

I mod podged the cardboard E with some dark red scrapbook paper. Here are some delightful letter mod podging instructions from one of my best and most brilliant friends, Mrs. Dub.

9 weeks to go!
