Pink Monday

Not ironed yet!

Baby quilts are one of my favorite things to make. Fast, fun and easy to machine quilt. It also gives you a nice chance to play with fabrics as well.


Don't you love this fabric that had little baby sayings all over it! This went together fast, I cut and pieced the entire thing yesterday.


As you can tell this is for a baby girl. I loved this little one on a swing, how perfect. This will be machine quilted by the end of the week.....


To continue with the pink theme today......my friend Cheryl machine embroidered this piece of velvet for Maddy. She thinks we might turn it into a pillow.



Until then she is using it as a table cloth, so she can look at it.
What are you working on today?

  4. Pretty in Pink!! I love your fabric combo!! Maddy must have been so excited to get velvet with her name embroidered on it. I seem to be working on a thousand things but then not much either - I hardly got any sewing done on the weekend. It's great to see you sewing!!

  6. I love making baby quilts too. Perfect size, not too much to get done on a DSM. Great way to try new patterns. Really fun way to use up novelty fabrics too.
