two letters

dear target:
thank you for your design inspiration. 
i like it when i don't have to pay for things.

unfortunately my craft projects would probably be a little cuter if i paid more attention to exactly what i was doing.  at least i caught that the G and H were mixed up before i glued them on.

erin made one too, i think it's awesome that hers is completely different and what that says about our personalities.  we're very similar but she's a lot more fun :)   here is Erin's version.

i've also been working on a little present for baby murray.  this little present has taken longer and made me crazier than just about anything i have ever done, and it is nothing.  like, it is just this cute little project that i did because it is something that wesley would like...and i should have just made a baby quilt because that would have been easier.  seriously i made and remade parts of this, i ran out of the fabric i wanted to use...it has been awful.  (see above where i said i should pay more attention to the details)

dear ashley:
i was very excited about this little project for baby murray.  i was going to use cute fabrics and different stuffings and baby murray would love it and older murray would love it and then i started the project.  and nothing worked out the way it was supposed to.  so when i see you on thursday, please know that lots of love and hair pulling and remaking went into this little project.  and for your next baby when i think of something that i think will be really cute, i will find a tutorial or a pattern or something that tells me what to do so that i don't screw it up.
i hope you like it anyway.

  2. Erin, I like yours and it's super cute, but BROOKE! I LOVE yours. It's probably just a difference in style - okay, it's totally just a difference in style - because they're both freaking cute.

    Seriously, it's amazing.

    And I know what you mean when you have a vision in your brain about what you want something to look like. I have piles and piles of attempts of those. My projects usually look 'perfect' because I don't show anyone the 3 failed attempts I've hidden in the corner like a naughty red-headed stepchild.

    Whatever you made, I'm sure it's ADORABLE.
