 Yay!!! I have practically finished the Moses basket lining!  I am very pleased with the results from a techincal point of view even if the result does not actually correspond to my taste!!!  Why did I go with classic?  Why didn't I get some rainbow stripey material?  Anyway.  I now just have to decide whether a simple hem on the frill will do or whether I should get some ribbon or lace to go round.  Also, I have washed D's lambskin and have decided that it will be perfect for Bubba to sleep on and that way there will be no need to buy or make a mattress.  So I feel that the pressure is off now.  I can give birth whenever, little man will have somewhere to sleep when he gets home!  This sewing project has been really fun.  I enjoyed every step, from working out how to do it right down to zigzagging the seams (old - but great - sewing machine).  I even enjoyed the ironing!  I am now what I should take on as a next project.  Keep the momentum going - clothes for me post-bump, patchwork blanket for a friend's baby, bags for friends, toys for children for Christmas.  Being not that an experienced sewer I could go in any direction it will all be new!  We'll see.  I still have the big wool cardy to finish and the hat for small.  I wonder whether I will havethe  time and the energy for knitting and sewing when the baby is here.
