Grandma's Quilts

Hello, Lovelies

When my grandma retired from her job, she had more time to focus on something she really loves doing. Quilting. She loves to make quilts and spends a lot of time and effort doing so. She decided to make her hobby into a small business. 
The two quilts below are examples of her work. The first was a graduation gift to me. I chose the fabric and design, and she put it together. The second is a blue and yellow themed baby blanket with a giraffe as the focal point. It is still for sale for those interested. Quilts make good gifts for different life events, and my grandma will even work with you to make a custom quilt to be sure it is everything you wanted.
You can contact my grandma, Marie Wood, at RosewoodQuiltsMI@gmail.com or on Facebook by searching  Rosewood Quilts-MI.

4 Month Photos | Addalynn

Hello, Lovelies

My little niece is almost five months old! I can hardly believe it; time seems to go by so quickly. Anyway, here are some photos from her four month mini session.

I tried a new technique during part of the session. It's called the plastic bag technique where you put a plastic sandwich baggie over your lens. It gave the photos a kind of hazy, dreamy look. I am definitely going to need more practice with it, but I liked the effect. The first photo below is an example of this photography trick.





And in color because I can never decide!

Hello, Lovelies

The second part of my trip to the east coast was Washington, D.C. for a week. Here are photos from visiting the monuments the last day.
