Breaking News: Hard to get things done with a newborn in the house.

Just stating the obvious in case anyone is wondering why I've been such a terrible blogger so far this month.

But one of the (many) benefits of a newborn is:

Babygifts1
PRESENTS!

Babygifts2
Divine hand crocheted blanket (thank you Maaike

Babygifts3
Finest Italian fashion (bisous Blandina)

Babygifts4
Moda the dog; the newest addition to the family (merci Sarah)

Babygifts5
Wise words (relatives) and a little something just for me, me, me (the Texan connection: Aidan and Sara Louise)

Babygifts8
A little bit of sewing to machine quilt the baby's blanket. 

Babygifts7
It's not going to bind itself, kid, hop to it.

Babygifts6
Plenty of Patty Young's Sanctuary line, with a bit of Joel Dewberry's Modern Meadow and a navy Essex Linen/Cotton blend. Sashed with Kona White.

Hope you've all had a great weekend. Will continue to post when I can, but only if I have something interesting to say!

Hi there Kirsty,
Goodness, you have a newborn plus other kids, plus a husband....and you expect to have time to blog?!! :) No expectations from me, family first and all that except if blogging is something that keeps you sane, then I hope you find time for it.
Your gorgeous little man is growing and looks so adorable. Love your presents too.
Take care,
Anne xx

I wasn't expecting to hear from you again until next year, so you're doing well!

I hope you're settling into a routine with the gorgeous little guy...and hopefully sleep isn't evading you too much.

Oh honestly woman you are still quilting!! What are you talking about super woman?? I love how huge that quilt looks with your little baby on it. He's a real little sweetie. The quilt is looking amazing too! Love the fabrics. I do like the looks of your pressies, it's the best part of a new arrival I think. Enjoy yourselves!

Maaike said...

Sweet Kirsty, it all looks totally amazing! And the quilt of course with the baby on it, is the best part of it. Simply Gorgeous. And tough you to be even working on it!
Enjoy your new pretty boy,

Congratulations on winning the giveaway from A Spoonful Of Sugar so that I had the chance to discover your lovely blog! I had a little look around and it is soo nice! Also congratulations on the arrival of your little baby boy, he is gorgeous! About the lack of sleep, don’t worry it gets better after about 3 years :)

Your wee boy is so gorgeous, Kirsty. Love, love, love this quilt.

Just saw your win over at A Spoonful of Sugar - congrats on winning the Go Baby. I bet you'll put in to good use and will be wowing us with even more beautiful quilts.

Oh my goodness. I realized when I was responding to your comment that I haven't been reading blogs lately and there might be a baby in the house. He is just adorable!! Congratulations to you and your family. Hope you're getting some sleep!
Take care
Karen
