More new patterns.....

A bagel with cream cheese is sitting just fine this morning luckily the nausea of pregnancy is gone but the hormonal headaches are not. I have one every morning and every night before I go to bed. Really annoying but that too shall pass.....Olivia was up at 5:00 am. this morning and once I am awakened by "Mommy, mommy, what time is it?" then it is all over for me. We are going to get her a digital alarm clock so that she can read what time it is and unless it says 6:00 she cannot come upstairs and wake us up. Not sure if it will work but maybe....worth a shot.
Anyway, I have two new Sewing Cards coming out this spring. Here they are.....
Daphne Throw......

And out of the other color palette......High Desert

It is so simple and great gift....I was thinking that they would make a great picnic blanket. Last Sunday we went out and had a picnic and it was wonderful......the weather was great and it was so fun just sitting together and munching on sandwiches and fruit......just great to hang out as a family. I sure do treasure those times - especially when I left the house this morning at 7:00 to get to the shop.
Ok, the other Sewing Card is......
Little Wallet

My girlfriend has a little credit card wallet that she uses all the time and I thought that the idea was great.....of course made it different but the concept of a little wallet to take out to dinner or to put in your jacket pocket rather than taking a purse or diaper bag is wonderful. They are easy to make and you can do it in an hour.......great gift....I think my friends will be getting them for birthdays!!!
Well, I am at the shop early to get some work done on the booth for market......
Have a great day!

I always hated the headaches. Hope they go away soon. I love the little wallet! I'll have to get the pattern. I was at the Stitchin Post for the customer appreciation days last weekend, what fun!

I feel for you with the early morning wakeups! We had the same problem, and solved it with a lamp on a timer. Our daughter knows she can't get up until the lamp comes on. Sometimes we can hear her in there talking to herself for 30 minutes or more, but she (almost) always waits patiently. She loves to yell "the lamp came on! it's time for get up!". So cute. :-)

Good luck with the clock! Make sure to write out 6:00 on a piece of paper next to the clock. Then you can avoid the 5:16 wake-ups, "Mommy there's a six on my clock!" Heard that one many times! : ) Our rule is that they can get up and read books or play quietly but no waking up mommy until 6:00. I am actually hoping to move that to 7 over the summer! Glad to hear that you are feeling better!

Oh my gosh, that little wallet is pefect!!!! I've been looking for a small one, and now I think I might have to make it :)

Reading your blog on little purses to take out rather than a diaper bag reminds me of the time I caught the bus into central London with the diaper bag instead of my handbag (I was 7 mths pregnant with daughter no 2 )I love your projects - keep them coming !

The digital clock and 6:00 a.m. WILL work, just make sure that from day one there is no response from you if it is not yet 6:00 - play asleep. Kids are cute and I had forgotten so many of the "little" things that make life sweet. These days I enjoy playing with fabric and making sweet projects - thanks for the designs.

That little wallet is precious. Love it all.

we bought a night light on a timer...it is a moon during the night...turns to a sun when he is allowed to come out of his room...and shuts off an hour after wake up time...it has been fabulous! (before we found this fabulous night light, we used a string of christmas lights on a timer)
