Last Thursday and Saturday morning I worked on this blanket for my sister-in-law, Stephanie. I used Vicky's quilting machine and quilted blue minky to the back. The front has monsters on it playing sports so I drew up a little monster pattern for the quilting design. It turned out cute, especially if you don't look close! The binding was my first ever so I had quite a few spots that I messed up on.. turns out I'm not so good at accuracy...
Jeremy made this headboard for us on Saturday. We had seen a Cherry sleigh bed at Costco for $800 that we almost bought but we are really trying to restrain ourselves a little! The wood only cost $55 and he made it in one afternoon. He painted it black and "distressed" it to match my temple portrait which I got for Christmas and I Loooove. We did have a black rod iron headboard from Pier 1 that I got when I was single but it's a Queen and we've gone King size (and never going back!!)

OK, I love that headboard! Will Jeremy make us one too??? I love the style of that entire room, too - the picture of the temple above the bed, the room color, bedspread, etc. Such great style, as always! ;)
I SO am loving the headboard. I just sent a link to my husband asking if we can make one too! Was it hard? Do you have directions? :) Or tips or anything?
Way cute baby blanket too - it looks so soft!
that is beautiful!!!!!!! i would love one like that! and i've been admiring those temple pictures for a long time.
I have a bed that looks a lot like yours and I got that same picture for Christmas. It is hanging above my bed exactly like yours. When I saw that picture I had to take a double look. I thought it was my room. I am so excited! If a great designer like yourself thinks it looks good up there I must have done something right! Yeah!
Your room looks great! Jeremy did a great job on the headboard. Your room is looking very nice and I love your picture.
The headboard is awesome and the temple picture is so pretty. Your room does look amazing! I love the monster blanket too.
I love that picture of the Temple. Do you have the web-site???????? i want to get an AZ temple.
Thanks for the infor. I found this web-site. www.culturalhall.com
Oh love your headboard :)
That is too funny! My Headboard looks exactly like that only taller and it has little details that make it more of a Mission style...but I have been begging Kaden to take it down to his shop and paint it a distressed black!! Are we on the same wave length or what?!?
BTW- Love the blanket...how do you do the binding?? Is there a website that would explain it?? I have got to learn how sometime!!
