Rainy Monday

I have decided not to put the little circle centers in these flowers, I like it better this way. I am also toying with not embroidering the little stems and just let the flowers float out there....

Today is Elliot's 4th birthday!


It was a pirate theme in case you didn't know...

His brother Griffin....

Cousin Maddy...

Cousin Fallon...

Friend Abby...


It was also a costume party because when you are 4 you can have a birthday party and a costume party.

Mommy and daddy cutting up the cake...






Daddy and Elliot
And a baseball game with all his new birthday gear. Happy Birthday Elliot!

    I love your block, the red circles look like berries to me, so can I say it's a berry beautiful block! What a fun party!! I showed my partner your egg shell trick from a few posts ago and he was very impressed.
