Baby Maya

Baby Maya is such a cutie patootie even when she cries. Not sure why but I’m attracted to photos of babies crying. I think it’s because it evokes emotion and since becoming a mother, I just want to cuddle and soothe the baby even more. I met up with Lori and Trevor at their home to capture some newborn portraits of their sweet new addition.

After a feeding and into Daddy’s arms Maya was one happy baby again.

My favorite picture from the shoot – so sweet and precious.

 

Fabric Galore

With the wedding season wrapping up at the end of next month I decided to dig out the quilt fabric I’ve collected throughout the year.  I thought I had about 3 or 4 groupings of fabric to make quilts out of but when I started digging through my drawers, I noticed that I don’t just have enough for 3 or 4 but enough fabric to make at least 10 quilts. That’s right, TEN. I guess you could say I hoard material but if something catches my eye or if a good sale is on, I’ll buy it. So when I pulled out my stash I got a real eye opener as to how much work was in front of me. A LOT. Not only did I have jelly rolls, fat quarters, and 1/2 yards of fabric, I’ve added a sewing project – making a set of curtains for our guest bedroom out of this awesome chevron material I bought on sale. Errrrr let’s see how that goes.

I am also trying to remember to take pictures of all of the quilts I’ve made so far. I will post some pictures of finished projects once I get some of these quilts done…then you can see everything as a whole.

But for now I thought I would take some pics to share with you what I have in store for myself. Wish me luck! And the search for quilt patterns begins…
