On to the next set...

The first set of string blocks are now complete and have found their place on Em's bed.  Coordinating pillow shams from left over scraps of the quilts.  Somehow they complete the whole 'day bed' look Em was going for.  I get a smile on my face every time I see the girls enjoying their room even more.  All the work making things just like they wanted was surely well worth it.



Now off to work on the second set for little B and her bed.


And to enjoy the windows being open this morning before the heat sets in.
