We have spent the week at the beach, and it has been so refreshing. I, of course, had to bring a few quilts along! When you own a small business, it is hard to take a break. My mind continues to run with the endless list of to-do's. We have spent this week doing absolutely nothing, and it has been *amazing*. I am ready to hit busy season (for quilts and weddings) head on come Monday!!
Printing My Days
I've recently been convicted of the number of photos found in the cloud on my computer and the handful of photos laying around my house. There are zero photos of my niece in my house, and she is now TWO!
This winter, we purchased a film camera. We bought it with the intention of documenting our day-to-day. My plan is to make a quarterly/yearly book full of photos. To kick that off, I built a book from our recent trip to San Fransisco. This trip is forever documented off of social media. Our children will be able to sit on the couch and touch each image. It is a conversation starter, and it looks dang good sitting on that coffee table! ha!
So, print your photos. Whether through Red Tree or Shutterfly, get them off your computer. Take photos of yourself. Document those around you. Because friends, these days are fleeting.

Moday's Faves - Newborn Session
Hey friends! It's time for some Monday Picks! These three quilts would make the *perfect* backdrop for a newborn shoot! You can use them as a traditional backdrop, lay them over a bean bag to pose the babe on it, tuck the newborn in with the quilt, etc. I don't personally shoot newborn photos, so props to you all! It stresses me out to the max! BUT, I love seeing how you use your quilts for newborns! It always leaves me feeling inspired and *almost* feeling like I should try it again! But, just almost! ha!
Pilot Hole Quilt - $90
This sweet quilt is full of pastel colors. I tend to prefer lighter tones for newborns! I can't wait to see this used for a newborn shoot!

Dresden Plate Quilt - $85
All of these are very fiminine, but it is hard to find quilts that work well with boys! I love the soft pink and other pastel colors in this quilt! This one would be great to use as a blanket/tucked in photo for a newborn shoot!
