A doll quilt

An online friend is going through a rough patch right now, and since she isn't sewing at the moment, when her daughter asked for a quilt for her dolly, I jumped at the chance to help her.


Granted, it's not perfect, and a bit wonky, but it's for a doll, and I'm sure she'll love it! I do!


Although I did poke a pretty deep hole in my finger with the needle while hand-sewing the binding on the back, it was a fun project to sew for a girl, and also inspired me to continue doing so (look back soon for a picture of the dress I made for my baby sister!)



The back is reversible to princess print, isn't it lovely!?

My baby is now a big boy!

Yes, it is true...he is officially a Kindergartener!


Gabriel started LAST Wed. and so I've been really busy with him and all the "new school" stuff, sorry for the delay in posting!
Sooo...here he is on his first day of School, he did great!



And just for comparison...here are a few baby pics as well! *sob* He's growing up too fast!

I'm not avoiding you!

I promise!

I'm busy cleaning up and organizing my over-run sewing room! Which is taking FOREVER!

But I'm *almost* done, so it won't be much longer! And then I'll share pics of my sewing space and of course the projects that will come out of a clean and organized room!
