I totally agree with you – I had a hard time admitting that my “permanent boyfriend” was actually going to be a husband, and the term ‘wife’ was a hard one for me to handle…especially when I found myself at home a lot. And I used to tell people that I was never going to get married. I’m not quite at the point where I’m ok with trying out the “mother” role, but I’m doing all right with “wife” at this point…although I still insist that he call me, instead, either “darling” or “my marital bliss.” hehe

The quilt is just lovely!
Cheers!

It’s really, really beautiful, Ashley. The shades remind me of perfect Neapolitan ice cream–in the very best of ways.

Kudos on learning how to sew, and embracing mommyhood or homemaking or whatever handle it goes by!

Your first quilt is gorgeous. You have caught the bug now. Its a slippery slope but oh so worth it. My baby girl is nine months old today and I think I made her 6 quilts before she was even born. There is just such an amazing variety of fabric out there, it is very addicting. congrats to you guys.
