the new year

January 3rd, 2010


1. gingham dress, 2. stripey dining room, 3. hat, 4. warren, 5. adele, 6. leaf crown, 7. one quilt: march, 8. summer girl, 9. corduroy coat, 10. earrings, 11. pointy hat, 12. patch on

We welcomed the new year with a big pot of fondue, the everyone promptly got the flu (not from the fondue). So I sort of missed  the first few days of this new year. I’m happy it’s here though, flu and all. Last year was a little rough (me and pregnancy don’t really like each other much) still a few things got made and some good ones at that. I put my favorites up there–that baby being the best thing I made by far. I hope to rework this little blog in the new year and maybe even get going on some patterns I’ve been meaning to work on. We’ll see. This little baby just learned to roll over and crawling comes quickly to my boys, so I’m guessing all sewing time will soon be gone.  I have ambitions though, three days in to 2010 and my list is already long.

Happy New Year to you and yours!

    Wonderful accomplishments this year! Glad you are feeling better and still have ambitions – even if crawling comes quickly, there’s always naptime! Happy New Year!

    You picked out some of the best,(the chair repair especially and the cashmere-lined coat) but I agree, the baby heads the list. Hope the flu is on its way out.

    I completely understand about pregnancy not agreeing with you. What a wonderful list of things you accomplished, especially the babe. Great job!

    I agree, nothing competes with the baby. And I am happy to report that Adele is doing fine in Canada. A little cold up here but we are keeping her warm. I really adore her. And thanks Meg for your honest and witty blog this past year.

    I remember when you started that chair repair! I love the end result. You finished a LOT more project than I did while prego! Good work!
