It doesn't seem like it's been since NOVEMBER that I blogged. But there is proof and it's true. Many things have happened since November. On a sad note, my father in law passed away New Years Day from a long sickness. On a good note, Mike and I told him that we were expecting our 3rd baby. He was absolutely thrilled!!! Melissa Lynn will be here on August 7th, 2012. Wow!!! That's 8 weeks away!!!
I've got the quilting bug again. I'm trying to utilize it because after the baby arrives, I will be quite
tired busy for a few months. My daughter moved into her big brother's room and I made the above quilt for her new "big girl bed". The pattern is "Off Track" by
Cluck Cluck Sew and the fabric is
Ruby by Bonnie & Camille for Moda. This pattern was SO easy and I love the way it turned out. The jelly rolls had green in them but I left them out because my son's bed is a Spiderman theme and I wanted to keep the colors similar.
Folded and bound. Just need to make a label and stitch it on.
I laid out the quilt and the kiddos immediately started "posing". I love this one.
Love my son's expression in this one.
This one is for my niece, Maddelyn. I gave her the fabric and showed her how to use my sewing machine. She designed it and pieced it together and I quilted and bound it for her.
My next projects are for Halloween. We will be planting our pumpkins next week and I'd like to see if I can sell some Halloween quilts at our pumpkin patch this year. Yeah!!! However, I really need to get it all done before the new baby is here or it will be waiting until next year.
