My mom embroidered this poem when my brothers and I were little.

“Cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow… for babies grow up we’ve learned to our sorrow. So quiet down cobwebs… dust go to sleep… I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep!!”

This is one of the first photos that I posted on my blog on the Baby page 10 years ago. It’s been one of the pages that I have received the most comments on, with many people asking if I know where they can purchase the embroidery pattern.

It’s only taken me 10 years, but I’ve finally figured out a way to transfer this pattern to a medium which I can offer for sale.
