Exciting Day

I have been busy helping my daughter move her sewing room and redoing the room for my new
grand daughter. She will be born today.

Her name is Mackenna.

I made her this quilt

with some soft chevron minky on the back

 

and quilted some hearts for her

 

 

and made some curtains and a diaper bag

 

I need to find a better hanger for the top to fit the rounded edge

 

and a little organizer

 

my daughter made her the cutest banner

I thought I got a better picture of it then this - darn it!

I also didn't get a good picture of the soft minky sheet I made

for the changing table

 

and a dust ruffle

 

So i have been busy sewing for our new little one

I can hardly wait until she gets here!!

 

until later - Carol



Dots and Chevrons

 

My daughter wanted me to make her a lap quilt with a snugly backing

and she loves dots and chevrons and all the bright happy colors

so it was so easy for me to choose fabrics I knew she would like.

 

 

I used a soft cuddle fleece for the backing

and a simple loopy panto.

 

and I tried my hand at a new binding technique

that I found here.

It was easy to do -

and I like being able to use two different colors/fabrics

 in the binding.

 

Now I want to make one for myself

 

 

Happy Sewing!!

 

until later - Carol
