37 Weeks and a Quilt

So I'm 37 weeks now! That means the baby could really come at any time...not too many signs that he's going to be here before his due date, but Teague and I are both getting very anxious to meet the little guy. Waiting for labor is such an interesting concept. Really it could come any time or it could be another few weeks, I think that's what drives me so crazy! But I am more excited than anything to see what he looks like.
Here is a picture of me at 37 weeks, I've grown a little more...the Dr says I'm still measuring small though, so more than likely I"ll have a small baby...I gotta say, I don't mind having a small baby! :)

I started working on a quilt somewhere around the time I found out I was pregnant and would go through periods of time when I would work on it a lot and then I wouldn't go back to it for a month or so, but finally about a month and a half ago I finished it! And I'm so proud!! (And addicted! I wanna make another!)...now keep in mind I didn't know whether we were having a boy or a girl when I picked out the fabric, so I just picked fun bright fabric instead of gender specific..so NO comments about how girly it is :) I figure it was made with so much love that our little boy won't mind. :)

Here's an up close shot so you can see all the freehand quilting I did. It's not perfect, but I think that's the part I'm most proud of because it was my first time...it was hard to do at first, but once I got the hang of it, it was a little addicting! So FUN!

Last, but not least here is a link to the wonderful tutorial I followed. She laid it out in easy to do steps even for some who's never made a quilt before!
