Lovey Blankie with Tags

I made this little Lovey Blankie for Lydia.  It coordinates with her bedding that I made recently (see previous blogs).  The top is made with a peach cotton fabric and the back is a light green minky dot fabric.  The little tags are made with five different coordinating ribbons.  This little blanket is perfect to take along everywhere and babies love the little "tags."  It is approximately 16" x 20".

Lydia Lemon Quilt

I finished the bedding set for Lori!  Here is the quilt:

My 2nd "Edgy Quilt" (also called ragged edge quilt) - I started on that quilt around lunchtime on Saturday and worked on it until right before midnight when it was completed!  I'm very pleased with how it turned out.  Here are a few pictures! 


This quilt has 5 different prints (50% lemons and 50% other).  The back is soft, green, minky dot.


There is a heart sewn on the bottom right square of the quilt! :)

Crib Bedding Adventure

My wonderful friend, Lori, is having me make her baby girl, Lydia's, crib bedding.  We went last weekend to pick out the fabric.  This picture shows the different fabrics that will be used for the bumpers, skirt, and quilt.  I'm not making a fitted sheet! :)  Lydia's room is painted yellow, so the main fabric will be the lemons.  Aren't they juicy??  Check back to see how it all turns out!

Red, White, Blue and Mickey Too!


So ULTRA soft that I wanted to keep it for myself!!



























I completed this project this past weekend for a friend who just had a baby boy!  It's made with three layers.  The back is red flannel.  The middle is white flannel and the top has red mickey print cotton and blue flannel.  It's hard to see in some of the pictures, due to the great contrast between red and blue.

The quilt is approximately 30" by 40".  These "Edgy Quilts" are available for special order for $45.

Repurposed/Upcycled Sling Bag!


I took my old Gap skirt and turned it into a sling bag!  I used my Amy Butler Birdie Sling Bag pattern and bought the rest of the materials to make this bag.  It is currently for sale on Etsy! 


The linen skirt next to it will be my next adventure!

Matching Bandana?

"May I please have a new bandana to match your new bag?" I just couldn't resist the chance!  Here is Walker, Easter weekend, showing off her new bandana.  It looks great, right?

New Mini Baby Washies





Since I'm not a mom, it took me a little more thought to realize that my other washies were FAR too large for bath-time.  So, I have new "Mini Washies!"  They are a little bit bigger than my hand and made with 100% cotton fabric top-stitched with a soft microfiber.  So cute and irresistible!  These can be ordered or purchased on my Etsy store- http://whitesatinribbon.etsy.com for $6 a set(2).
