Earlier this month I posted this decorating dilemma. I was pleasantly surprised when my sister and my mom’s friend, Melisa both had the same great idea!
A tray! (Littlest Pet Shop characters, optional.)
Why didn’t I think of that??? I even had that wooden tray sitting around, not being used for anything. I love it right there on the ottoman with my books and coffee cup. (Although, usually it’s not hanging off the edge like in this picture!) The only thing that was missing was a blanket.
I asked my mom to help me make a quilt and in the mean time, she said I could borrow that soft blue throw from her bedroom. We planned a “working Saturday” for the new quilt-to-be, but that turned out to be the weekend it snowed and our favorite quilt shop was closed.
So one day last week, when Jeremy took the kids to his dad’s, I met my mom at Sweet Home Quilt Co. and we browsed until we found these:
Pretty, huh? I love picking out fabrics and trying to imagine what the finished project will look like. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks mom and I will plan another work day to make the quilt top. I can’t wait to see it lying in my favorite comfy spot!!!

Did I read correctly–The quilt shop was closed because it snowed?? :-)
I love those colors and patterns in the material for the quilt! It’s gonna be beautiful!
Make 2, make 2. I will buy one. I’m doing my bedroom in this color. Beautiful!
