On the Move Again

Thanks to all of you loyal followers. Rosy Cheek Boutique is still very new. I had high hopes to get it going this year, but because I was sick for so long, I've neglected it a lot. Well good news. I'm feeling better. New news, we're moving yet again. I'm excited to have a new workroom with better lighting and storage space. Wish me luck!

I've been wanting to make some girls Halloween Skirts in any of the patterns previously posted. So, if you're interested let me know as soon as possible and I can get started on them. I'm not sure what to make for boys, how about a cape? Would that be fun? If you'd like me to make your little boy a cap for Halloween let me know his height and shoulder width.

I hope your Fall is exceeding your expectations, and that all of you parents with school age children that you find the break you've been waiting all summer for. Enjoy the few warm days we have left. Happy Autumn!

Back in the Game? Maybe.

To all of RCB's faithful followers, I'd like to apologize for neglecting you for so long. Although, that apology, doesn't get come with a promise that I won't do it again. If you read my last post on FaceBook then you've already heard. But for those of you who didn't here's your chance to read my lame excuse of why I've been neglecting you and the blog. I am pregnant. Yea! However, I also am one of those lucky 1 in 200 women who get to endure hyperemesis gravidarum during every pregnancy. To learn about this go to hyperemesis.org. For treatment I get to figure out how to swallow anti-nasea pills, and be cursed with a permanent IV (also known as a pic line, or TPN) in my arm and annoying cords and a heavy TPN bag & pump. So, all this fun stuff and chasing around my 18m daughter has really filled my summer.

There may be light at the end of the tunnel, though. I just made two twin size quilts for my husband's sisters (twins) who just turned 16 (Pictures of front of quilts below). Happy birthday girls! What does this mean? It means that I have been able to get off my bum and get something done. Yea for me! Any one who has suffered through hyperemesis gravidarum will understand this is a big breakthrough or a nice remission.

I'm going to try and push this remission to last as long as I can get it, and I'm going to try my darnedest to get back to work with Rosy Cheek Boutique. So, hopefully you can look forward to more products and posts.

May's Free Scrapbooking Pages Posted

These pages have actually been posted for a bit, I just never let you know here. This month's designs were dedicated to a charity that my grandparents both work with (quilt, show, and more), this is the Congenital Heart Defect Quilts. It raised awareness to the country and world about the reality of CHD and also does a number of fundraisers to support families with children with a CHD. Each block on the quilts is dedicated to a specific child. It will either be designed by the family, the quilter, or even the child. If a child ever passes away, then an angel or angel wings are added to the block to signify that that child has "earned his wings". There are well over 50 quilts made and they are shipped around the country for shows and fundraisers to support the cause. These quilts have served as both a beacon of hope as well as a memorial of love and support.

To learn more about CHD Quilts please visit chdquilts.org. They are also on Facebook and Blogger. If you know a family who are facing the fears of CHD, please let them know about this good program, and perhaps suggest dedicating a free quilt block to their child.
