The boys are growing like crazy!  Those 2 hour feedings are packing on the ounces.  You can stretch it out to 3-4 hours anytime,  boys!

Block 1 of "The Night Before Christmas"

I am just starting a new Block of the Month by Bunny Hill called "The Night Before Christmas" using "Le Petite Ecole" fabric by French General for Moda)
(Check back to an earlier blog for the details)





BLOCK ONE
 The bottom part of the block is tan fabric not green.  No matter how many pictures I took it still shows up a greenish colour.)


A closer view of the top section.

Folded Placemats

A new pattern by Deb Richards has arrived in the mail.  This time it is for placemats.  Using larger squares of  fabric it goes together quickly making it a fun project to do.





I used Astor Manor fabric from Moda for my placemat.




I will be teaching a class soon on her technique.  I'm just waiting for the renovations to be done on my classroom.

New Babies...New Quilts!

With two new babies, I had to get busy and make two new baby quilts.  Lindsay wanted the nursery to be blue with chocolate brown so here is what I came up with.  I designed the quilts using polka dots and the minky fleece which is so..so..soft.


This one I call Peek-a-Boo Puppies.





                                                                                                   

This one I call  Peek-a-Boo Monkeys.
