Lily's big girl bed.

A few months ago Lillian decided she was too big for a crib. And as Chad and I now know, what baby wants baby gets (not really but sounds funny, right?). So I went to sewing her up the most perfect bedding. Fit for my sweet (but sometimes truly horrible) daughter. Love you Rubby. Kisses.
I made two pillow shams, a bolster, bed skirt and added some color to the bottom of her drapes.
The bed skirt turned out really cute. I did all of it in one day (I don't suggest it) Chad came home late that night from a concert and I was just finishing up at midnight. I looked like a crazed woman. But I can't stand to leave projects unfinished and I knew that if I didn't finish it I wouldn't sleep. So I just pushed through, and with occasional self soothing talk I managed to avoid hurting children/animals. And fifteen hours later, (and some seriously neglected children) viola complete!
The finished project. I got the headboard online from Walmart (I know this is against my moral code to avoid all things/people Walmart but I think it's technically okay since I never actually set foot in that wretched store).

P.S. I know that there are exceptions to the rule and that not all Walmarts and people whom shop there are disgusting. It's just in my personal experience the majority(99.999% ) are. So please no offense if your a Walmart lovin chicka; your probably out there fighting the good fight to keep that place for imploding into a black hole. Good luck.

P.P.S. It's a fight you'll never win. Give up.
