Here's what's been going on in the Hepworth household over the last couple of weeks...
Poor little Audrey got sick at the end of January, she had a rough couple of days. Took her to the doctor and found out she had an ear infection with the possibility of having RSV, so kept her home a couple days to watch her breathing and luckily she got better pretty quick.
I've been sewing of course. Made a Valentines wall hanging, which didn't get done for this Valentines, but I'll be making sure it gets finished up for next year. Got the pattern here. Used stuff out of my stash. I LOVE how it turned out!
Also finished quilting and binding the Halloween quilt! Finally!! Now just need to add the button eyes on the kitty's and it's all finished!!!
Nathan's been learning how to win at his Toy Story 3 Wii game. He really enjoys his games...
The kids have also played games with daddy. Here they are drumming away to Guitar Hero...
Audrey's being silly, she strapped herself into her booster chair and started walking around...
And made a Heart quilt block...
I have been trying to start working on some decorations that can be used for the different holidays. Plus they are quick and easy so in theory should be quilt finishes too :)
Made Nathan a tote to take to church to carry his Book of Mormon. Used an old pair of jeans for the outside with a pocked on each side. The inside is flannel from some old pajama bottoms that I had cut up ready to use for some project. It also have some pockets on the inside for paper and pencils. I used a piece of the flannel to put a letter "n" on one side. Again no pattern used here, just made up as I went. I think it's pretty cute myself.
And of course, I've also started a new quilt top. Actually it's almost done. Got the instructions for it here, been wanting to make a whirly gig quilt for a while and love how it's turning out. Already have plans for quilting it. Hopefully another quick finish (fingers crossed).
Other things going on...
*I've started a sewing group with some of the girls in my ward and my sister. We are meeting every 4-6 weeks, making a quilt block and will be working on small projects as we go. We had our first meeting the first week of February and will be meeting again next week. I'll post more about this later.
*Nathan is getting ready for Kindergarten in the fall and is doing such a great job learning his letters and numbers. He surprises me each day with the things he knows! He is excited and keeps asking if when he turns 5 if he gets to go to kindergarten. I keep telling him yes, but he will have to wait a couple months after he turns 5 before he gets to go. We'll see how he takes it when he doesn't go right to Kindergarten after his birthday.
*Audrey is working on potty training. She's doing great at daycare, hasn't had any accidents yet, and we're working on it at home. She seems to get distracted playing at home and forgets to get herself to the bathroom, but today she did go all by herself and didn't even ask for any help! She's getting so big!!
