I have a really good reason for being slack

I have had all good intentions of getting organized and writing a decent post about the hospital and the first couple of weeks at home but honestly, it's proven difficult to find enough quiet time to write a coherent post (between the baby and the mountain of visitors). I will get to it eventually but in the mean time you can catch up on all of Sarah's funny faces here.

Floor quilt

Surprisingly, the first post I have after having Sarah is not a Sarah post (directly anyway) but evidence that you can get something done while the grandparents are holding the baby!

This is a little floor quilt + stuff bag made with stuff from my stash, to give Sarah a mat to lie on at social events (baby classes, ABA meetings, the meetings of the "Sarah Harris Appreciation Society" formed by the grandparents).

This is the first quilt I have made with a polyester backing and I found it quite good. The puffiness is quite forgiving when quilting and it seems to spring back into shape after being stuffed into the bag!
