dear, Aria
It's crazy how quiet it's been in our house this last week. I can hear the fish tank bubbling, the wind blowing, even these keys a-tippity typing just now. I've been thinking of you, of course. And Liam.
Do you remember these - the fabrics you chose before setting off on your trip? I hope you don't mind that I added just a few more that I thought you'd like. And that white stuff is batting to make your desk chair cushion nicely soft. I took some time off from working on "my book project" (shhhhhh)) to make it for you!
I had thought I'd make a log cabin design, but I didn't after all because that Go! baby cutting machine we'd played with wanted to get involved. So, instead, lots of little squares. You know how I said that I wasn't sure that the fancy cutting machine would really be faster? I was wrong. It's waaaaaay faster.
I was even able to cut several layers of scraps at once. The fancy cutting machine is definitely here to stay!
Do you know what I added after this? What's your favorite stitch? Yep, zigzags! I quilted it with zigzags just for you. Hope they make you smile!
Tied it on your chair the other day.
Do you like it?
I started missing you and Liam on day one. I guess because two weeks really is a long time. But I know that you're having a blast. Make sure to enjoy the sparklers on July 4th! Oh, and tell Liam that he's next!
Love you so much,
Mommy
