Smell that? Peonies… 
Garden gifts from friends…hand-me-down hosta, that I shared with a friend last year.
She gave me the items in the box. Lilly of the Valley! More great scents to add to my garden.
Yay! Remember this post? I finally got around to doing this twirly skirt tutorial, from Erin. It was so easy, and it came out very cute. It was a winner in this household.
I finished this last week, but today was the first day it was worn, so I finally got a picture. It’s at the end of the day, so don’t mind the strawberry on the shirt, or the fact that a seam is on the front…do you know how hard it is to photograph kids????
She told me she wanted to wear it to school so she could show all her friends her skirt that I made. Sure enough, her teacher told her right away how much she liked her skirt, and Corinne’s answer “My mommy made it!”
The skirt passes the twirl test, big time.
I love the look on her face on this one.
If you have a daughter, you should really try this tutorial. It was so easy. I will probably make another. Maybe one for me…
OK, one more post about this quilt and I am done!
I wanted to share with you this Michael Miller fabric. I love, love, love it. I have more to spare…I am thinking a cute summer shirt is in order for the little guy!
As promised, here are pictures of the finished quilt. I am very happy with the way it turned out.
I had a lot of fabrics I chose for this one, and I re-designed this quilt about two times before completing. I ended with the design I thought best showcased the different fabrics.
I chose to free motion quilt the whole thing. That was an experience! I liked the way it came out, though. I guess I’d try to do that again…I think it’s one of those things you get better with time!
I made this quilt reversible. That was probably a big part of the many re-designs. I knew I wanted the back to look like this, but the front was not as easy!
The best part about this quilt is the story. Prior to this blanket, Nathan would not sleep with a real blanket. He would only sleep with baby blankets, and always the one you see behind him in the picture. Well, the night I put this on the bed, he let me cover him up with it and he settled in. I guess he knew how much I had worked over it and that it was his own unique piece.
