oh sew busy!

These last few weeks I have been starting projects like crazy, David calls it my "Nesting" period, and I am pretty sure he would rather have the house cleaned, but nevertheless off sewing I went. With help from my friend "Miss Bliss" WE tied two quilts, one she binded for me (Bless her heart) and the other I binded. Did I stop there? Oh no, I decided it would be really cute to have two matching burp clothes and a hooter hider for each quilt that was made.

This is the first set. Butterflies. It lookes so fun!


This is the second set. Flowers. The quilt isn't in the picture, Kristy still has it at her house. The quilt backing is white Minx, just like the other one!

Then Keagan really wanted a new quilt, so Celeste and I cut up fabric last time I was in Kingman, and she took some to make a baby quilt for Madi, and I took the rest to make a matching and MUCH LARGER quilt for Keagan. Again, should of stopped there, but I thought it would be fun for Keagan to have a matching quilt for her baby doll. (These are Christmas presents so mums the word!) Then I also made matching burp cloths out of the left over fabric.

This is Keagan's quilt in the starting stages.

Keagan's quilt- finsihed, almost.. it still needs to be ragged!

WHEW!

Now all there is left to do is to make tamales, Christmas Cards and baby announcements!

I am tired just thinking about it!
