Princess quilt

My daughter has had two boys Jack who is 6 and Easton who is 3. They are great kids. When she was pregnant with each of them I made a Precious Moments quilt, so when she got pregnant with Hailey I had to do one more. And of course this one is our little Princess, she is due to arrive any time in the next couple of weeks.

Burp Cloths from double fold diaper.s. I added flannel to the middle of each diaper. The flannel side is what the babies face will rest on. These are for my granddaughter Hailey!!!

Wedding Quilt

Front of quilt
Back of quilt
As I mentioned in a previous post my 3rd boy got married this summer. I have made quilts for all my kids (expect my amazing daughter) quilts when they got married.
I got this pattern from a quilt magazine and chose a selection of blue, white and cream prints. 
I love the way it turned it. Its calming and peaceful.
I quilted this quilt myself. Its only the second quilt that I have ever quilted. I am blessed to have an awesome friend who has a long arm and is willing to share.


Here is the label that I made to go on it.
The date is their actual wedding date.

I made matching pillowcases to go along with the quilt. I appliqued Mr. and Mrs. on the front. I hadn't done applique in a while, but it was easy. Just had to ask my daughter a couple of stupid questions. lol.


Ring Bearer Pillows

My third boy just got married this summer and his wonderful bride asked me to make her some ring bearer pillows. Being in another state I just kind of went off of pictures of ones that she had said that she liked. Her wedding colors were purple, grey and yellow.
I think that these pillows turned out perfect. And better yet so did the bride. 
I got the yellow ribbon and the purple flower from The Ribbon Retreat. The rest of the ribbons and the fabric I got from a local craft store.



Jacks Birthday Quilt

Jungle Print Fabrics
This was the quilt that I did for my grandson Jack. This was for his 6th birthday. He was so excited to get this. I have done a quilt and pillow case for all my grandchildren, I still have two more to go this year. 
This is the label that I made for it.
This a picture of both the
quilt and the pillowcase.

Hailey June Baby Blankets

Crochet Baby Blanket 
 These are blankets that I made for my new granddaughter who will arrive here in October. These were crocheted using different types of yarn which I bought at the Cotton Shop. I did simple stitches which were single and double crochet.

Blanket and Burps


More Burps



These were fun to make and super easy. Simple stitches made it go fast.

Its so much fun to do any type of sewing when you do it for loved ones.

I love doing things for my wonderful grandchildren.
