Little Quilts


So my stitching is a little crooked.  :)  But I still love my little doll quilt I whipped up for my youngest girl.  I made it from a free pattern offered over at: http://nanacompany.typepad.com/nanacompany/2012/04/a-free-sweet-dreams-little-one-pdf-pattern-.html
We are doing homemade Christmas again this year and I have started with this project.  I love that the Fat Quarter shop now carries the little 2 inch pre-cuts! 


Happily, I finally managed to get this selection of fabric squares off of my cutting board and made into a little baby quilt/playmat or just a happy wall hanging.  I have yet to decide.  I am still also debating on what to back and bind it with. I call it my Square Chalk Box.  Quilting should be done by Friday as long as my littlest is agreeable.  :)  I love my little Cheerio eating monkey.  He captivates me so much of my time an I am more than happy to give him loads of my attention.  They grow so fast!  What takes you away from quilting?

Look at my new "Love" canvas!  I won it from Carrie over at Believe Magic. She is truly the sweetest most cheerful person I have ever met!  My canvas has found a home on my desk.  It really makes me happy to look at. 

I have been struggling to catch up/finish projects and to take photos of everything...I am lacking a little in the photo department.  Far more progress without photo documentation.  At least there is progress!  The good news is I am all caught up in the Half Square Triangle Quilt Along over at In Color Order!

August Block of the month


September Block of the month


The first time I made this one I made a mistake!  Can you spot the difference?


I really hate when that happens!!

There has also been progress on the Apple of My Eye Quilt (where I am lacking the photos) and the my bee blocks from the modern quilt guild.  I am waiting on a few more blocks before I lay I share it.  But it is looking pretty fun! I need to get more stuff done.  I have a few quilt deadlines coming up.  Babies are due to be born and will need little quilts to welcome them into the world.  :)  Hope you are enjoying the beginning of fall!
