So, big news! It's a.... GIRL!!
Now I really need to get started on the nursery! The first thing is the windows. The windows are currently a peeling teal yucky paint. I need to scrap and paint this first, then put up the window treatments.
I was supposed to pick out fabric for the curtains and other things BEFORE we knew the sex of the baby so that we wouldn't end up with a too girly or too boyish room, but I slacked and didn't make a decision. I decided today on a pretty neutral green tree-print fabric, that I will embelish with the other accents. Here are the swatches:
It is a Joel Dewberry print. These are the colors I like, but all 4 might be a little much, eh?

In real life, the green is lighter and goes very well with the indigo. I'm thinking the green for the curtains and the pinks for pillows and other things. We need the orange because we are using our orange Poang chair from the parlor as the nursery chair, and sadly, they don't offer the ottoman in the orange anymore, so I'll have to make one.
