How adorable are they!?

Do they hold up well in the wash being stitched? No shrinkage of the pattern or anything!?

Ugh. Crafty people

..I missed out on all those genes.

The stitches don't tend to wrinkle up or look bad like some machine monogramming, but they do hold up quite well. I stitched a scarecrow on a pair of overalls for my mother 11 years ago and it outlasted the overalls. She wore them until they feel apart.

I can make some of these for other folks if y'all are interested. I'm pretty much unemployed right now, so anything to help pass the time between household chores and taking care of the critters is actually appreciated.

Great to know! And I will certainly keep that in mind, they're too cute! And gracious, with something like that, the designs are practically endless!

I just LOVE the owl one! I am thinking of trying out this craft once winter comes and I am huge. I will be stuck inside for most of it and looking for fun things to do since I won't be able to snowboard this year! Great job!

One more thing while I'm thinking about it. I made a Jungle Animal quilt and we've decided to do the Cowgirl theme, so I've put it up for sale on Ebay. You can see it here . I will accept your best offer.

Hey guys...yesterday was a good day....as far as being almost 37 weeks....then about 2:30, the inability to breathe came back, along with cramping & diarrhea.

I laid awake & crippled to the bathroom on & off until 4:30am. The cramps were all the way to my knees! Then I finally took a Tylenol and about an hour later, managed to fall asleep.

I am still having trouble breathing, having lots of cramping and I'm kind of dizzy.

I have my 37 week appointment this morning at 11:45....I'm wondering what the doctor will do & say today? I'm sure there's another crotch check and ultra sound in order?

 

[Rare Feathers Farm]

Oh and I've been fighting the urge to throw up. Is this "normal?"

I'm making a list of my complaints to show the doctor....he's probably going to tell me to toughen up!

 

[Rare Feathers Farm]

Wow--this makes so much more sense to me now!

I also like that it just stops at 33-36 weeks! I mean I get that 36 is technically full term but what about the next few weeks. Though when I hit 37 weeks I have to admit I was DONE. Which was hard as I didn't deliver him until almost 42 weeks. It's so ironic because I couldn't wait to not be pregnant and then it was a little sad not having those movements etc inside. Oh pregnancy how you mock us so!
