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
