Hair Flowers #7


I recently made these flowers that I found from this blog.
This might be a spoiler for some people's Christmas presents. I made these from felt. These have been fun to make. I have made the majority of these about an hour before church starts when I realize I don't have bows or anything for hair. Cheap, Easy and fun to make. It's a win win win!

Burp Cloths #6


I had some use-able scraps after I made the rag quilt. (Due to my mis-calculation I had some flannel left over. Math and I are becoming reaquainted after a long break) I decided to make some burp cloths again for previously mentioned nephew on his way. (All I have been hearing is "why are you making him so much stuff. Shouldn't you be making stuff for your OWN kids. Out of the mouths of babes!) A little ribbon and cloth diapers and here you go.

I LOVE rag quilts!!! #5


This was another project for the nephew coming in June. I have a wonderful rag quilt my friend Melisa made when I had my first. It is the perfect size and thickness. I decided to make one for the munchkin. It was a little hard picking boy prints at first, but I found these. The best part of a rag quilt? Easy Easy Easy and you don't have to be perfect it hides so much. I think all the rest of my quilt projects will be rag quilts. This puppy was done in 90 minutes start to finish! Well 2 hours if you count washing time!

Baby Quilt #4

My sister is expecting a little boy mid June. I have been making him all kinds of crap... I mean really great stuff that no baby or mom could do without! This is his quilt. I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. This is the reason not to ask my husband what he thinks of any given project. Mine looks at this and says something like, "Wow... it looks like you spent a lot of time on that." Um What?!? How about "look how awesome the fabrics coordinate? Or "what a lucky little boy to have an aunt as cool as you?" Nope. He thinks it's "too busy" with "too many colors" and something about "That will look great in Jennie's house". I should take my own advice and just stop showing him stuff! Oh well. I DO love it and think it turned out awesome! It is the Toad in the Puddle pattern in some kind of Moda collection (the guy at the quilt store picked it out. Always trust the man who works at a quilt store... Always! ;) )
