today we went to l.a. to michael levine, one of my favorite fabric stores, to try to find fabric to complete benjamin's bedding. we're already set on using the retro rocket rascals fabric by michael miller & needed something simple to complete it. after much looking around we settled on a red & white poke-a-dot & a white chenile to go with the two. now the plan is that i'm going to sew a quilt using the retro rocket rascals & poke-a-dots on the front & the chenile will be the backing. i'm going to trim the blanket with satin ribbon. i'm also going to make a bed skirt using just the red poke-a-dots and then a bumper using the retro rocket rascals fabric.
i'm pretending not to be overwhelmed. haha. i've never taken anything this big on as a sewing project so i'm just praying that it all works out. luckily i know some awesome sewers so if worse comes to worse i can ask for help. i'm also supposedly crocheting him a blanket, but that'll have to wait a bit. not like i didn't know he was coming over the past 6.5 months. ha.
