I love sewing for babies and children. It's so easy and fast, so tiny and sweet. The quilt above is made from a wonderful Japanese fabric with a charmings rabbit and flower motif on it that has been sitting on my shelf for a long time. I was going to make a little vest for Annie, but it is so perfect as a park blanket, or something to lay on the floor for baby. The bear piece is a large cotton flour sack "burp" cloth and the rest you can see. Now I have to find a box and ship them off.

You are so talented!!! Everything you do is so lovely! Your family is so lucky to have you-a very kind creative soul!-- They will be passing that all down the line too!!!
I go out of town, come back and notice that you've been creating like crazy. So cool that you have the energy and ability and that you make time to create one-of-a-kind things.
I was born on April 1st in Berkeley, California. I'm enjoying a life full of satisfaction and challenge alongside my dear friend and partner, Bill, and our almost twelve year-old daughter, Annie. We have a great house and garden that we share with two dogs, nine canaries, and three fire bellied toads. We are choosing a path of living that holds everyone's needs as precious and equal. We're loving an unschooling approach to education for Annie and ourselves. We're trying to live a life with the least amount of negative impact to the enviornment. One way we're doing that is we're really trying to be mindful about what we buy, how we travel, and how we care for ourselves. I will post my ideas, challenges, and celebrations for doing so on this blog. I would love to hear any of yours too!

I think she is a lucky Mama. You should have seen the cats, when the first coo came on the speakers.
