It's here!!

Be prepared for picture overload here! This is the big project I have been working on. I finished awhile ago..... but haven't been able to make it to Lethbridge to set it up for my soon to be niece. Little Miss will hopefully be joining the fam permanently very soon! She is just barely 2 and needed this bedset in all it's girly glory! So I started with the  quilt but then it needed a great bedskirt, and then the window needed coverings and then I had to make some more of those adorable birds, and while I was waiting to take pics, why not finish off with some pillow cases to match! So here it is folks.......
Me making a bed pregnant... kinda funny.
Here are those cute birds, see this post for more info on where you can get your hands on the pattern, for FREE.

The quilt with it's 'raw rose'

Scallop edge! I love this detail!
Pillow cases, and more girly scallops
The rose detail over the side of the bed
The valance and curtains, and yes more scallops!
bedskirt and quilt edge
Arial of the bed. I was so happy that the quilt fit perfect when it finally ended up together!
The whole kit and kaboodle
It even looks nice folded at the end of the bed!
So this gorgeous quilt is done almost entirely of the Darla line by Tanya Whelan for FreeSpirit. A fun girly inspiring line. I so enjoyed working with these fabrics. This quilt is staying a one of a kind for my new little niece. But if you like it, or hopefully LOVE it, then keep your eyes peeled because I am going to be doing a GIVEAWAY, that will be posted up in the next couple of days, by the end of the week for sure. It'll look familiar and wonderful in it's own rights. 

See You Then!!

I've been under the weather so I haven't been able to comment before now. I'm the LUCKY LUCKY sister who now has this gorgeous ensemble in my home, and I can tell you that it's even more stunning in person!

Liz, I can't even hope to convey to you how totally awed I am by your talent. This set for my Little Miss is a dream come true, and beyond! I can't wait to wrap her up in her gorgeous little haven when she is finally home with us, and tell her how much she is loved. I will tell her that her Auntie Liz made all of this to say "Welcome to Our Family!!"

You are an Angel and I count myself as blessed to have you in my life. Thank you for the gift of this dream room for my little girl. I love you!!!!
