When I had babies, we found out the sex of the baby…. after we popped them out! Imagine that. We bought yellow or green sleepers, that would be a safe color for a sweet baby girl or boy. Now days, they can find out the sex, months in advance. We had 4 baby girls……..Ah….the pink I could have bought in advance, had I only known in advance! Well……actually, my 3rd baby was supposed to be a boy.
Surprise…he came out another SHE! This SHE (Shannon), is expecting a baby in July. Pink or blue, is still a mystery.

Lately, I’ve put one of my hobbies (BLOG) on hold, for another hobby that I really enjoy. In days past, I spent most of my free time sewing. I’ve missed it, and felt the need to dust it, and bring it out of it’s grave! I wanted to do this for some time now, but I seem to have a problem with deciding what I enjoy doing the most. (Piano, Baking, Blogging or Sewing, or learning to use my new Nikon D90 Camera) You simply don’t have enough time during the day to do it all, and keep up with other Necessary Necessities!

I simply LOVE the new Minky blankets. This is a blanket for a Royal Baby for sure. (We certainly are NOT royalty, but if we were….this would be the Royal choice of baby fabrics!)
The softness of this fabric is incredible. So…..I purchased some of this Expensive Royal Fabric, dusted off my Viking, and went to work.
OH……….SO DARN CUTE! I thought I would show you.

This MINKY material is NOT inexpensive. I paid about $17.00 a yard….which is ridiculous, but after you see it all sewn, it’s worth the ritzy price. So soft & cuddly.

WARNING: If you have not sewn with MINKY…..BEWARE……It makes a BIG MESS!
Little fluffy pieces of Minky (billions of them)_….stick to you, the walls, the cabinets, the floor, your hair, up your nose…..etc. It does vacuum up fairly easily, however. A must have: A LINT ROLLER!……and don’t even think of wearing BLACK!

Well….since I have nothing else to blog about these days, I thought I would show you my Martha Stewart side!
Next…..Burp Cloths or drapes?????
