Finally, here are a couple pictures of a quilt set that I made for a friend. Her shower was yesterday, so now I can show it off!I backed the quilt with blue minkee fabric, lined it with batting, and the top is patchwork squares of blue minkee, cream chenille, and coordinating blue and tan prints that I found at Hancocks. I loved sewing this quilt, and was so pleased with how it came out--so soft and cuddly...it almost made me wish I was having another baby boy. =) I'm working on another one to put in my etsy shop, but it's not quilted yet.
Coordinating burp clothes...
I've also been crocheting baby blankets again. I just finished one for another pregnant friend, but this sweet ducky blanket is for my baby. When I saw this fabric on etsy, I knew it would be perfect for a baby blanket...plus I already had the yellow thread to match!
You can check out the clearance section on Mineymo's shop for more good deals...Little lavender sachet pillows in my shop... These are a couple of the prints in the little quilt I'm making for the baby. I finished the quilt top last night, and plan on doing the quilting later this week. I LOVE lavender right now...lets hope baby does too!
Blessings,
Jessica
Those fabrics are just gorgeous. Wherever did you find the map and airplane prints?
ReplyDeleteA NEW BABY - how wonderful! You will have so much fun sewing for that special baby. All it takes is a good pattern, a little fabric, a little time and love. It is fun to show off a baby with adorable outfits made by you. You can dress your baby any way you choose. It will not always be this way because in just a few years, they will have their own ideas as to what they wish to wear.

What wonderful gifts.
ReplyDeleteYour blog is just lovely to visit, seeing all those lovely clothes on gorgeous Emily. Lucky little girl.
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice gift!
ReplyDeleteI really REALLY love your baby boy blanket you created for your friend. Where on earth did you find such lovely fabric (the planes and such)? I am new to reading your blog, but I love it and am so inspired (I am a relatively new seamstress). Anyway, you do really great work. Thanks for sharing your lovely creations!
ReplyDeleteSarah and Jael, I got the fabric at my Hancock Fabrics store. Some of the prints are still available on their website under Children's Prints. Here's a link. You have to look through all the pages as they aren't all together even though they are meant to coordinate together.

Utterly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThe baby quilt is adorable! I love the airplane/navigation theme to it and the softness of it that fits baby but the theme will follow him for awhile! I'm sure your friend was DELIGHTED to receive these!
ReplyDeleteLove the baby quilt. How the heck are you planning on selling a baby boy at your Etsy shop? "I'm working on another one to put in my etsy shop". LOL.
ReplyDeleteI love your bog and all the wonderful items that you make. It sure is an inspiration.
