I will warn you ahead of time, this post only has 1 cute picture of Kaylee in it. The rest is me showing off my mad sewing skills :oD. I've been able to make a lot of progress and finish a handful of projects lately, which is always super nice. Even better that most of it was done with fabric I already had in my stash!
This is a Crazy Nine Patch that I started in Nov. 2010 at a quilt festival class with Kate. I've finally completed the top! I recently found the backing fabric for it so hopefully I'll get it completely done soon!!
This is a Sweet Treat pattern called Hodgepodge that was picked up at quilt festival last year. The theme for the new baby was owls, so I appliqued an owl to the corner to give it a little something extra. I love how quickly the Sweet Treats come together!
This is a tree skirt from a pattern I'm pretty sure I picked up at last years quilt festival too. I started it last year and just finished it the day we got our tree this year :)
Proudly displayed under our tree this year.
My sister had requested for me to make a Hobo bag for her for Christmas. I'm hoping this fits the bill! I found this free tutorial online for a Pleated tote and slightly modified it so it wasn't quite so huge. It's the first time I've added a snap and an interior pocket. Both of which were surprisingly easy to do.
I'm tickled at how these Silhouettes of Kaylee turned out. They are Christmas gifts for the Grandparents! They were super easy to do, although it was very tiring for the fingers!! I think they turned out pretty schnazzy!
This is the picture I used to trace the silhouettes out.
Next I'm planning on venturing into the land of clothes making by making some adorable jammie's for Kaylee and her cousins. The patterns I got seem like they are written in a totally different language, yikes! Good thing I got the quick and easy ones!
