Bedding

Porter and Ruby shared a room until 8 months ago when Porter wanted his own room, so I split them up. I painted Ruby's room dark brown from the newly installed chair molding up. I sewed all of her bedding and put her name in pink vinyl on the walls with pink pompoms hanging from the ceiling, so cute.


We had family come before Thanksgiving and I put a blow up bed in Ruby's room for my Mom to sleep on. Ever since then Porter has insisted on sleeping on the blow up bed in Ruby's room because he doesn't want to sleep by himself.

Luckily I had bought all the turquoise/brown fabrics that coordinated with Ruby's pink/brown fabrics because Walmart sold out of them a week after I bought them. So I made a new cover for Porters comforter and I have been trying to add as much turqoise to the room as I can and I have moved him back into Ruby's room. So this is what I have been busy working on:
Porter has been asking for a "silky" for months so I thought this was the perfect opportunity to make one. I used the same material from his comforter for the front and this silky chocolate brown for the back and I sewed a ribbon on the front so he could hang it from his shelf. After I gave it to him he kept asking where's the silky side, crazy kid. I dont think he knows anything about silky's except that his cousin Parker can't sleep without his.

Excellent job on the bedding! You are so talented! Tell Porter he better figure out what a silky is or Parker will come steal his!
