What will the baby’s bedding look like?

Well- I hope it will like it’s supposed to. But since I am sewing it, there are no guarantees. I can tell you that I did shop around for something that I liked. BUT I didn’t want monkeys. I love the monkey stuff that’s out right now. I just didn’t want it for my baby’s bedding. Or turtles. Or sports stuff. Or..etc. You get the idea. I didn’t see anything I was dying to have.

And then I took my twinkie (this is my twin—for those wondering why I would take a Twinkie places) to Hobby Lobby with me. The first patterned material I picked out seemed great. And then I kept looking. And then I worried that what I was picking was “too  girlie.” Not that it matters to anyone else. Just me. But I knew I wanted something that would look great and manly. And yet again, I find that there is always more in the feminine looking stuff than the manly-cute stuff.

And then jackpot. I found this one material that I thought was perfect. It wasn’t girlie. It wasn’t ugly either. Suh-weet. And then…I changed my mind. I think my twinkie was getting upset with me. She just wanted me to choose. And finally…I did. And I really, really love it. The colors are fantastic. The material is perfect for my little man’s stuff.

So enough already. What does it look like?!?!?!

Oh—and the material I picked was 30% off. Does it get any sweeter than that?

I agree.
