    Well, I can't say I'm up for putting a live web-cam, but once I get into my third trimester, I can tell you a more definate due date, and you all can start putting bets on which day, and I'll update with lots of belly pics. As it stands, I'm due on the 28th of April, but that has time to change, lol! I'll also let you all know as soon as I know if it's a little boy or little girl. We're hoping for a girl :D

    Nope, I don't mind at all :) In fact, I'm pretty sure I got the idea from someone else's quilt, when I ran a google search a long time ago. I thought it was so cool I HAD to use it on something!

    What a great idea. It turned out lovely. I have one on the design board but that's as far as I have gotten.

    Very pretty, Melanie!

    I LOVE the use of the red fabric, it's just perfect with the black and white. Plus, the stars between the blocks are just the icing on the cake!
