baby's first unicorn




luke's nursery needed a unicorn
so i took one of my stuffed animals and added a wreath
of blue and aqua flowers to his neck
and i also sewed a custom saddle with luke's initial.
he watches guard from the enchanted window seat
this is his view

this and that




things in my everyday life
baby hanger before (with the lion)
and after with scrapbook paper and stamps-fit's the nursery better
the above yarn i am using in luke's baby afghan
it is coming along and I adore the color-teal
brock's curls
always lovely
