A New Project, not bag related

Since my sewing room/the baby's room has been getting painted, I was wondering what kind of theme, if any I was going to use. I went online and found an adorable crib set that was "countryish" with reds, greens and tans patchwork and immediately thought I could probably make something like that. So, I went to my country homespun stash and after working a bit last night and today on my kitchen table, mind you because my sewing room smells like paint, I have completed a crib bumper. The picture isn't that great because I don't have a crib set up to display it properly but hopefully you get the idea. The colors that you can't see are the countryish red and green. I'm pretty impressed with it. I used scraps of the homespun fabric as the ties. I can't wait to see it in use! I plan on making a few wall hangings sometime as well.
