Lovely little baby blankie

~The best things in life are quilted~

Want to see what I made??
A pretty little girly baby blanket! Using one of our kits which includes flannel, minky, ric-rac, pom-poms, and then I added the lovely little appliquéd circles!

These blankets are easy-peasy to make and go together fast. But simplicity doesn't make these blankies any less adorable, cuddly, and perfect for the next baby in your life!

Alright friends, have a great afternoon! Get some sewing done! :)

The return of the blog!

~If I stitch fast enough does it count as an aerobic exercise?~

Well hello again friends! Shame on me for neglecting blogland and all the wonderful things that have been going on with us! I suppose it's not so much that I have been neglecting all the things going on, I've just been neglecting to tell the world about them! So let's start off our update with LOTS of class pictures!

So what all has our little quilt class done you ask? Well those ladies have been cruising on their quilts!!

They laid them all out






They did LOTS of sewing


Some pinning here and there
And of course we had a whole bunch of fun along the way!

We even had our first student finish her quilt top!!
Miss Mandy was the first, but since then all the gals have got them finished! Don't worry, when I remember to bring the right camera card home you can see them all--trust me you don't want to miss out on these beautiful quilts our students have made!
So we also had our first pinning sessions in preparation for tying!
It kinda looks like she's trying to escape from the quilt's grasp...hee hee!
But she got it all pinned up,
And next time around I can show it to you all tied up!

Well folks that's all I have to share with you tonight, but trust me there's a lot more where that came from! I hope you have enjoyed watching our students' progress as much as we have; we're so proud of them!!! Remember, there are still class openings if you want to join in on the fun! Just shoot us an email or give us a call-- better yet stop by and see what all the fuss is about over here!

I'm done for the night everyone, sleep tight! Under a warm homemade quilt of course!!
