Harrison's Room

We got Harrison a new toddler bed, which he actually sleeps in now (for a while he was falling asleep in the rocking chair in his room) and I finally finished his bedding in August.


I looked everywhere for Robot fabric. But since my local options are very limited I found nothing and had to look on line. And still most of the stuff I found was the wrong color scheme. So when I stumbled across this rocket fabric series (called "Rocket Scientist") in the color I was looking for, I snatched it up. I "quilted" it on my sewing machine, using the only fancy stitch my machine has - which is a big zig-zag - And did horizontal lines strait across every couple of inches. Good Enough. Finished it with black binding, made a pillowcase and voila!


And I know. I am probably committing some huge designing faux pas by mixing my decor like this. His room now has robots AND rockets. I like to walk on the wild side!

Oh, let's see. I also better tell about this little picture I made, since it tickles me so much.


I wanted to do something to picture all the most famous robots through history, and a time-line seemed like the best way to go. I bought this frame with a time-line in mind, found pictures of all these robots online and traced them. I had it matted at Michael's to finish it off, but next time I think we can find a cheaper alternative, like THIS.

And, that's all.
