Is he standing up? Or kneeling? Either way, that is so cute! And are those toile curtains? I am in the market for some for our kitchen. Where did you get yours?

standing. he started pulling himself up on everything now.

and yes, those are toile curtains. i bought the fabric and made them. i bet the two together were less than $20 because the fabric was super cheap.

Brittan said...

omg, what a big boy! haha! well the cheapest i have found is about $15 a yard, online. i'll keep looking!

Believe it or not, it was on clearance at Wal-Mart.

Don't buy online. SV does, but she really knows her fabrics. Just go up to Joanne's or Hancock and really feel the weight and the colors. I have some coupons if you can use them.

Hancock closed down I thought. I went to Joanne's today and didn't really find much. I also get coupons, but haven't gotten any recently. I get a lot through e-mail, but don't have ink for my printer.

wow! i just looked it up and the closest one is in ohio. that's dissapointing because all of my ticking stripe and the maroon toile in my living room & kitchen were from hancock. it's a waverly fabric, so it's still available, but i did like the store's selection. it seemed less overwhelming than joanne.

and walmart does have a decent selection. i found it by mistake. if you need help, the crazy kiddo's and i could meet you somewhere for a fabric adventure!

What a great brother sister picture. One day Kylinn will ask,"Why am I always wearing ballerina/princess outfits in my pictures?" You will just shake your head.

Hey, re: fabric shopping. Hancock's is still on line. If you know what you want, It is called Hancock's of Paducah. Wallmart usually does have a great selection of fabric.

Tell me when you are available. That would be great. I didn't realize that you had toile in your house so much. I love it! I am going to do a nursery in it for sure.

I was online yesterday and saw a ticking kiwi stripe that I liked. I am thinking I can do toile for the slider and stripe for over the sink...or vice versa. Tell me when though! I am a free bird as of right now! :) But the sooner the better of course.
