Liam

My first nephew Liam will be born today, they are inducing!
My sister wanted me to paint some canvases for his bedroom, like I have done before HERE.
I am not a super great painter.
I know a lady who is a fabulous canvas painter if anyone is ever interested.
She rocks my socks off.
Any-hoo, I was sick over these canvases.
I had no idea what I was going to do.
Not to mention, my sister is very traditional in her style and does not like themes.
The nursery is beautiful, but no themes.
I don't blame her, it is so much easier that way.
I woke up from a dead sleep with the idea for this project.
I thought, "I have a embroidery machine that would do a great job!"
I also felt like this was a gift that Liam could keep for years to come.
I had only enough fabric to use, it was cutting it close.
I used varying sizes to give it a fun feel.
I like them stacked like this, but they are not put together so she can hang them separately or stack them on a dresser or a shelf.

It took a lot of time, but it was worth it.
I hope she likes them.
I cannot wait to meet my new sweet nephew, Liam.
The boys and I are going this weekend to visit him, pictures to follow next week sometime!
