My sister made this quilt for my brother and his family for Christmas. I love these quilts! They're made up of everybody's old jeans and nice comfy flanel. Our family had one growing up that my Aunt had made. It was the most fought over quilt when we would go camping or sleep out on the trampoline. They are nice and heavy and warm. I love them. My sister filled all the pockets with toys and surprises for their girls. Another fun thing she did was give them the twelve days of Christmas books. The kids get to unwrap a new Christmas book each night to read. In our family we rotate which sibling we get gifts for and next year my sister has my family so I'm sending out a big fat hint to my sister right now and saying that I love that gift! Was that a big enough hint?

McKinley's Nursery
I had to show some pictures of McKinley's cute nursery. My wonderful, amazing, creative, and talented mom and sister came and spent a week with me and pretty much did the entire thing! Thanks Mom and Shannon!
My mom and sister made all of the bedding.
They even made this quilt. I love the flowers. You can't tell by these pictures but they're 3d.
They made the curtains as well. One of my small contributions to decorating the room is I and my mom did the "M" canvas with leftover pieces of fabric from her bedding.
They even helped me finish up other projects that I started years ago. I originally started making this quilt for my niece before she was born who is now 2 1/2! How lazy am I? Oh well, McKinley will appreciate having this.
I bought this frame and painted it green with the leftover wall paint and I'm going to hang it with ribbon on the other side of the room between the closet and door that you can't see.
And of course I had to post a picture of the star of the room! She's so stinkin cute! I love her!
The only thing left I want to do to the nursery is find some cute saying to put on vinyl decal in brown or white onto the striped wall above the window. Something about birds or flowers maybe? I don't know. Any ideas?
