I am busy finishing up a couple new patterns for fall market. I really had fun quilting this one, as I tried the little circle detail in the veins of my feathers for the first time. It wasn’t as hard as I thought it would be!
I just love these fabrics and have been saving them for something that will really show them off. I will share more soon. . . .
Speaking of fabric, I just want to thank everyone for all the fabric suggestions from my last post. Obviously, you are all better hunters than I am! I now have lots of good choices for the bed skirt, not to mention the new fabric sources that I now have bookmarked!
In addition to finishing up some quilts, I have been spending lots of time photographing Carter. He’s now about 3 1/2 months, so it’s time I got some 3 month photos posted!
We couldn’t get him to smile for the family shot. We were taking family photos with my entire family and it just plain wore him out! Better luck with the smiles next month . . .
He has already changed so much since last month. He still hates tummy time and has started to get scared of people. He lets it be known with lots of loud crying. But, he still loves to smile, kick, and talk. He also loves to stand, put everything in his mouth, hold onto his toys by himself, and get up too early (and hang out with Dad). He has also started to giggle, though I feel a little jipped that Daddy is getting all the giggles. I guess I need to grow some better whiskers for tickling (which is how Daddy gets his giggles) or come up with some new tricks!
Trends and Traditions 
Heather, he is just adorable, savour every minute because they change so much the first year and it goes so fast. Blessings to all of you Sandra
Love the detail in the feather and the new pattern. I might not be as easy for me. The pictures of the main man are always tops! Did you think of a name for the pattern?
Oh so precious!! So very happy for all of you. 🙂
Looks like you are all having a fabulous time! Enjoy.
You do such a great job of photographing Carter, love the picture of him in the necktie!
Oh my goodness Heather — he is sooo cute ! He had that round daddy face doesn’t he. I think moms get less giggles early on — but those babies always know who to turn to when they need a rock… Thanks for sharing your lovely pictures.

It just KILLS me he is so ADORABLE! Love your quilt but that baby…makes my Grandma arms ache for another little grandbaby! Guess I’ll have to wait for the Grandbabies to have babies now. I miss that age so much! Thanks for sharing him!

So happy for all of you, thanks for sharing!
Carter is soooo cute! Don’t you just love baby boys. I had 4 boys & 1 girl & wouldn’t trade a minute of the time I had with them when they were babies. Enjoy every minute. You’ve waited a long time for him.
He is just adorable! and I have to say I just love the red sweater you are wearing. I’m sure you made it and it’s beautiful. Laura
Carter is sooo precious!! Enjoy!
Try making fart noises… I know…. BUT it works for my 4 month old! Can’t let dad have all the fun:)
He gets more adorable every time I seen him!! I love the pic on his tummy!
Adorable! Love seeing these sweet pictures and the family one!!!!! The one with the tie made me laugh – what a CUTE idea!!! LOL
Love the Nautical Notes. I also knit and quilt, so i totally get it. The challenges are amazing! Please keep posting knitting, quilting, and Carter. I also enjoy family photos with your hubby and Daisy.
He is adorable and I love your quilts. I am just making my first big quilt and like the more modern bright colors like you use.
A hint for tummy time, put a baby proof mirror on the floor so he has someone to play with. For my grand daughter we used her car seat mirror. She enjoyed tummy time a little bit more!
