An Artichoke?
I’m at 18 weeks! That’s officially halfway to “full-term.” Even though real full-term is 40 weeks, it’s safe to deliver anytime after 36, so they consider that full-term. I’ve got 2 more weeks until the anatomy scan when we find out what kind of genitals this kid has, not that it particularly matters since I…
Read MoreSpot the Pomegranate
Hi, everybody! Spot is currently is week #17 of his or her existence. According to the internet, that makes Spot roughly the size of a pomegranate. Personally, I’ve never understood the reason that babies in utero are compared to food. Perhaps sizes of food items are more regular somewhere else in the world, but around…
Read More#Project52 – Motherhood
This week’s #EverydayProject52 challenge was “Motherhood.” Not being a mother myself, it’s hard for me to have the opportunity to take photos that match this theme. The closest I come to motherhood is taking care of my cats. Although, I do occasionally hold my niece Charli, without dropping her.
Read MoreIntroducing Charleston
My sister had her baby on Friday. Charleston (Charli) Mae was born at 1:02pm, and was 7lbs 2oz, and 20″ long. I got a chance to go down to the hospital on Saturday and meet Charli. There were lots of people there, but someone still thought it was a good idea to let me hold…

Welcome to Coffee Talk! A concept that I shamelessly stole from Daenel over at Living Outside the Stacks. This is my 2nd ever Coffee Talk. Grab a thermos of your favorite drink, and join me for a little chat. Fancy Fonts Since I got my new computer, one of the things I need to do…
Read MoreHuxley’s Monster Quilt
A couple weeks ago, I shared with you that I was working on a quilt for my soon-to-be nephew, Huxley. But somehow, between getting a cold, and generally being a slacker I didn’t get around to finishing the quilt until late last week. Which is pretty sad, when you realize that all I actually had…
Read MoreExciting News
I’m excited to announce that I’m going to be an aunt! My sister (and her husband) are having a baby. And I got to take the announcement photos. Since they posted them on Facebook yesterday, I think it’s safe for me to share them now. We had a lot of fun doing this quick little…
Read MoreProject Quilting – Hearts
It seems like everything is having a heart theme this week. It was the theme for #OurProject52 this week, and for this week’s Project Quilting Challenge. It kind of stressed me out because I don’t usually do hearts- they seem so childish to me. I’m much more likely to decorate with anatomical hearts than real…
Read MoreFrog Quilt
My fried Laci is having a baby, so I wanted to do something special for her. She’s doing her baby boy’s room in frogs, so I decided I would make her a frog quilt for him. I went through several iterations of the design before I settled on the final one, which has a big…
