cuteness!

The babe is a keeper.  totally cute and has been smiling at me for almost a month now.  which is really very good because i was starting to think he would be serious.  baby smiles keep us from eating our young.  or throwing them out the window anyway.

do you like the blanket?  i made it.  i am in love with the monster fabric.  so much so that i….

…have been keeping up with my new year’s resolution to sew more.  besides being held hostage by high-maintenance baby hanging out with the kids, i’ve been sewing.  sometimes into the wee hours of the morning.

i made this:

and this for my BFF:

and this to wear high-maintenance baby:

and another one for my BFF:

then with remnants of other projects i made this:

..which is a tote bag.  i liked it so much i made another which is slightly different.  then i found a tote i never finished from a few years ago.  so i finished it:

then i found this ADORABLE flannel that i made a couple of boys scarfs (scarves?) from a few years ago.  so i made D on for when we hit up Colorado in a few months to visit my cousin:

i also made this:

so that’s all i’ve done in the last 2 weeks since setting up my sewing room.

now on to setting up an etsy shop.  i need to sell some of this stuff so i can buy more fabric.  vicious cycle it is!  i must sew!  actually, i have plenty of fabric for the time being.  i just really like to shop for fabric.  there are so many cute ones out there.  like that monster fabric!!  AAAHH!!  i adore it.  i want to make myself PJ’s out of it.

anyway, i need to come up with a good name for my etsy shop.  any suggestions?  i’d go with andromeda arts but there are already a few sellers with andromeda in the name.  i’d like to be a little more original.  i was thinking about ursa major designs, but i don’t really like it. so help me out folks!  give me a name!
