Mila's sleep sack.

Notice Hoodes in the background. Jealous.
 Speaking of sleep, I forgot to post pictures of Mila's new sleep sack (we finally weaned the swaddle at nearly 5 months!). Marmousch made it, isn't it beautiful? Thank you Marmousch. The pattern is from Anna Maria Horner's Handmade Beginnings: 24 Sewing Projects to Welcome Baby. When I bought the book last year, this was the first project I bookmarked. It's the patchwork that reeled me in. I love patchwork.

For the squares we used all existing fabrics from our stash (repurposing makes me happy). Reds and blues with a soft pink flannel back. Marm made it big for lots of room to grow into. So that Mila can spend many more nights not sleeping while still looking adorable.
