i spy houses baby quilt #2

There's a new baby in this world that needs a baby quilt! A good friend from college gave birth to a beautiful baby girl this week. I've been meaning to make this quilt for her, and now I'm totally motivated!



It will be similar to this quilt but with a few changes.



I plan on putting her name a la lazy gal letters on the front. maybe. ha!



These blocks are finishing at 12".

(not so) wordless wednesday

did you know that if you delete a post, it still shows up in people's blog readers? i deleted a post awhile back, and today i put my own blog into my reader to see, and that post was there. so if someone new adds my blog to their reader they get that post.

any ideas on how to fix this?

we have a winner!
