Current Projects

 I have been working on some older projects and some newer projects. 

 I was able to give my oldest daughter a quilt this week that I finished awhile ago. 

She will be sending it off to a friend that recently lost her dad. 

 Feels good to help others. 

 I had the meeting with the genetics counselor today. 

 I will be moving forward with some genetic screening.  

Will keep you all posted but that info won't be out for a few weeks after I get my blood drawn, 

 The pattern is called Heart Mania by Meags and Me.

 I hand stitched some of the hearts, 

 Colors are Pinks and golds.

I used a really pretty rose Minky on the back.

I showed you the cover finished, but this is with the pillow form inside it. 

Really happy how this turned out!

I bought this cute remnent from JAF.

It was a patchwork.

I put this navy flannel on the back

I then had to make a matching crib sheet.

And this cute little lovey with satin edging.

I like making these with Minky on the other side.

I can use up my Minky scraps like this.  

I do a 16" square and just round the corners.

That's all for today.  

I am working on another pattern test and will show you that soon.

Happy Caturday from me and the boys!

Sea Horse Quilt

I have had a few finishes but want to share them one by one. 

 So today, since this quilt has *finally* been gifted I thought I would share it. 

 Do you remember the sea horse quilt that I did with my two friends?

We finished it and sent it off to California to it's new owner.  

Little Camilla now has her quilt

Looks like her big sister liked it too!  

I used the Mermaid Minky on the back and it is so soft!

I absolutely fell in love with this fabric. 

 If you can find some reason to use this you should!!!

Please, run right out and buy some, you will not regret it.

Here are some photos of this all finished.  

If you need to make one too, the pattern is by Summercrafter and you can buy it from her right here.

I made the pink one.

My friend, Judith, made the green one.

My friend, Robin, made the blue one.

I made the waves too and put the quilt together and did the binding.

Quilting was done by Kathy Koch of Threadbear Quilting. (she is amazing).  

I found this adorable Mermaid quilting pattern.

You can see how cool the Mermaids look on the back too.

I was happy to sneak in some bunnies and that adorable little cat face!

 This little queen of the Mermaids was one of my favorites!

Welcome to the world little Camilla!  

We were so blessed to be able to make a little something to brighten up your room!!  

Many hugs and kisses to your sweet mom too!

I miss you Karen <3 p="">

Enjoy your weekend everyone!  

My kids come home today and we are all going to hang out at the camper.

  I can't wait!
