Getting ready for a baby shower!

My friend's shower is quickly approaching, so today I whipped up these burp clothes, quilted the quilt finally, and I'm still working on the binding.

That's it for the quilting show here. Fall sure is busy.

Taking Turns Blocks

I finished all of my taking turns blocks. I really like them!

Taking Turns Amy Butler Style

We now pause this baby quilt marathon to work on something new! I'm working on a quilt from the Spring 2012 edition of Quilts and More called Taking Turns. Monica of Happy Zombie is the designer. Today I cut all of my fabrics. This is going to be a graduation present for this coming spring. I'm quite excited.

Sherbet pips finished

This week I managed to clean my sewing room and finish quilting and binding this cute quilt! What have you been working on?

Quilt for a Grandma

Mom and I worked on this baby quilt together. She did the piecing and binding; I did the appliqué, embroidery, and quilting. Mom was going to a surprise baby shower for her friend. Really it was a grandmother's shower. A cute idea, I thought. Our friend lost her husband recently, so each 9 patch has a piece if her husband's dress shirt. On one of those squares I appliquéd a heart and embroidered his initial.

Baby quilting along

Working on these blocks today for a baby boy that my friend is having. Love the material. Farm fresh by Riley Blake.

Summer poncho

I made this towel poncho based on some photo inspiration from Pinterest. This is a terrible night shot but really this towel is bubblegum pink! Quite cute. It was a gift for our little friend Ava. A quick project, less than an hour from start to finish. I made the center hole 16 inches but would probably do 14 next time.
