Happy and relaxed mums to be!

We just had a wonderful weekend away in Bowral attending a Calm Birth seminar. We went along with Phoebe and Josh and it was just such a beautiful and empowering weekend. We stayed in a gorgeous B&B, had dinner at Eschalot in Berrima, and spent the days meditating and learning about how birth can be a positive experience. And look how relaxed we both are!

Although our bumps aren't very visable in this photo, I'm 27 weeks and Phoebe is 33 weeks.

Finished picnic blanket

I'm so excited to post a photo of my first big major sewing project. A few posts back, I wrote about the beautiful fabric I'd chosen to make a picnic rug and here is the finished product!

Although you can't see it in this photo, the back is made from denim (nice and hardy), and it is hand-tied. The back corners have little fabric pockets, which you can put rocks in to keep the blanket from blowing away in the wind. Perfect for when the weather gets back to normal!
