It is kind of fun in a Right Bank Babies sort of way (not too matchy-matchy), right? [...] Remember this pattern? I ordered it! Here is the fabric I got to make it: Amy Butler LOVE Sandalwood Tangerine AB55 – 1 YARD SALE From viasplace Don’t you love it? It is an Amy Butler. I ordered it from etsy.
