Mural Monday ~ Week 20

Well folks, this is the last one I know of, but rest assured; I will ask around this week for any I may have missed ;-) This is the side of a snow/surf board shop. Those wave bubbles turning into skeleton heads are pretty ominous looking, huh?

I've had a few questions as to what does Madison look like? Other than a blanket bundle? Here's a sweet pic I snapped of them this past Saturday at five days old.

Yes, I know; that's probably not a 'real' smile, but it looks pretty sweet to me.

SO.

I was just visiting over at turkey feathers and I'm joining in with her fab idea of Dollar Days in December. Routinely from now til the end of the year I will offer something for sale for one dollar plus actual shipping. It may be something I made. It may be fabric or other supplies. It may be on my etsy site or here on the blog, in which case I will pick randomly from those who leave a comment. Just for fun and to keep you interested.  I'll start with this little five foot bunting/banner made from all vintage fabrics.

I started making these when my friend Bonnie brought a whole box of vintage (I'd say 60s for the most part) triangles from her 87yo mom's sewing room. Here's how the box looks AFTER I've made several buntings already!

So I just kept mindlessly sewing them into five foot lengths of bunting. Hung some in the craft corner

and now, well; you'd think I'd quit making them, huh? Nah. Then I'd have to do something yucky like clean a bathroom. So I've got a few. If you think you'd like one, maybe to hang across the back porch or something? Let me know by leaving a post here. A dollar for the bunting and a dollar to mail. Paypal and US residents only, please.  (Knowing me, I'll pick more than one person.)

I surfed over here this morning. Love reading your blog and found out we are in the same county! I was down at Go Fish yesterday for lunch:) And the Nesting Place is one of my favorite stores. Do you sell in there too?

I love the buntings - my vintage-loving 12-year-old would be so excited if I bought her one for Christmas for her room. I love the combinations of fabrics!

[Meg]

Oooo. Those look fun. That has to be the sweetest little picture of the baby. I love the mama's sweet look on her face.

I just had to leave a comment. . . That is just about the cutest baby photo I have ever seen! The 'smile' (& I do think it is!) on her little face is such a expression of contentment. . . sigh. ( . . . & Momma looks pretty content too!) Thanks so much for sharing it!

I love buntings/pennants, and your are especially sweet--but not as sweet as that photo of Madison and Mommy. It will warm your heart forever.
