My friend Nyeema is like a little sister to me. She became a grandmother in July, however, baby Chase had to stay in the hospital and did not come home until October. She began decorating Chase’s room before his discharge and explained that it has a dinosaur theme.

Using this theme, I texted her images of various fabric swatches to coordinate with his room. When one of the swatches caught her daughters eye, I immediately ordered this cozy flannel before it sold out. Lucky for me, it was ready for pickup in 24 hours.. I then asked Nyeema for Chase’s birth announcement info and created a custom birth announcement that was embroidered on the reverse side of his quilt

With the remaining fabric, I sewed a matching bunting. However, I used his embroidery sample for a memory box allowing her daughter to save items like his first lock of hair, first pacifier, or hospital bracelet

I hope that I did his room justice and appreciate Nyeema for trusting my hands
