Little Boy Blue

Today I’ll be cutting out the fabrics for this quilt.  It’s one I designed yesterday for a local baby boy recently born with some difficulties, now in the Arkansas Children’s hospital.  I’ve dubbed it “Little Boy Blue” and hope to get it pieced this week, quilted and bound shortly after, and delivered!

I love white in baby quilts, but since this little guy has some health issues, I’m sure the quilt will take a beating and so I put less white in it.

Whipped up some bittersweet chocolate custard to make ice cream for my sweetie later today after it cools!

I ordered some espresso powder and coffee extract from KA… coffee ice cream for ME when it gets here, yum! 

Recipe for the chocolate ice cream.

cute quilt - wonderful gift to a baby with health problems, I'm sure the parents will be glad you were thoughtful of them.
Ice cream sounds wonderful - I haven't made any in ages.
