Many works!

Right now I have soooo many WIP's!
My brain is a little bit dizzy over it.

Time to hunker down and focus!

My Christmas Blanket seem's to be continually sliding down to the bottom of the list.
I might end up taking it to my favorite Long Arm gal to save some time and brain cells.

Today I finished a doll quilt for a friend's daughter (Christmas present).


I used some extra HST's from a crib quilt that also needs to be finished up.



Once that's done, I have an entire crib set that's waiting to be made 
for a friend that's due this month!
EEK!
I'm so excited to use Vanessa's tutorial found here.
I've made a gazillion bumper pads but I really love Vanessa's (shown below)!
And I love trying new things.



Those are just a few of the many WIP's.
If I don't come up for air in the next few days send reinforcements!

p.s. Do you need a gorgeous gift for your daughter 
that she's sure to love???

You should totally make one of these!


We made this bed for our daughter over a year ago and it remains her favorite!
It fits 2 American Girl Dolls.
If you want more of a single bed simply use one less slat in the headboard and footboard.
Find the plans here.
If I remember correctly it only cost us $16 to make!

  7. Lu! You are so stinking talented! Everything you do inspires me! Thank you so much for sharing all of your beautiful quilts! I would love to do a doll quilt like the pinwheel one you shared for my little girl for Christmas.... do you mind sharing the solid colors that you used with the secret garden fabric. You just blow me away! I don't know how you find time for it all but I'm so glad that you do!

  8. Hi Jamie, where have you been girl? I hope you're doing well. Is your Busy Boy quilt coming together? Okay so, these solids are also from the Secret Garden Collection. They are geranium, canary and mint. You are so sweet Jamie. And I'm so happy that you pop in from time to time! :-)
