My big sewing projects

One of the big sewing projects that I have been working on that I just got done right before Christmas was these Table runners. I did 4 sets of 4, for the first 4 holidays of the year. The run the full length of the table and while they were not hard to make they did at times get a little boring... but I love how they look and one day I'll actually make some for me.

Oh and remember those Quilllows I made and posted about a few months back? I finally got those done, I ended up making 19 of them. Yes 19 What was I thinking? I have NO idea but in my defence I was NOT pregnant when I started them and was 9 months pregnant when I finished. My how time flies! The rest of my big projects are in the posts to follow. It was fun to do a home made Christmas this year, and I for sure learned how to be much better at sewing. but I think next year we might just buy gifts for everyone. Of course I say that now but that does mean it will stay that way!

A not so fun support group meeting

Tonight was our monthly support group meeting.   I was actually looking forward to it, and hoping that it would be a good meeting.  I have found some really wonderful friends there.  There were a lot of new people there tonight and I've never seen it so full.   Which of course is not a good thing.  It always makes me sad to think that someone else has to loose a baby too. However it was NOT a good meeting tonight.  I'm totally baffled how someone can sit in a room full of people who have ALL lost a child in one way or another and say that no one knows what they are going through and that what they went through is far worse than what everyone else has gone through... Yea for me personally a miscarriage would be far easier than what we did go through for Colette, but I would never say to anyone that had a miscarriage that what I went through was far worse than what they went through.  I would never dream of it!  Yet I had to sit through ...

Another Ultrasound update

Today I went to the Hospital and had another Ultra sound with Maternal Fetal Medicine.  Other than both of the babies being in kind of a funky position  everything looks great.  And the babies are not measuring small by any means!  Baby A is about 2lbs 8 oz and Baby B is about 2lbs 11oz.  But it was good to see their little hearts beating away and watch them snuggle together.  I have a little break from dr's appointments for a couple of weeks but it will be fun to see how much they have grown the next time we get to have a peek at them.
