And for my youngest

I realized in my posting frenzy that I had forgotten the pictures for M's quilt.

He wanted a teal and red quilt.  Here's what he got.





And the pieced back.

Teacher gifts

I made some teacher gifts for the girls' teachers this year.  One teacher loves lady bugs so I found a paper pieced pattern.  The other teacher loves puppy so I found some puppy fabric for the center and back.  Here's what we came up with.







Please don't look too closely.  My orange peels were not pretty.  But, practice makes perfect.  I will be doing these again.

Next up, another nephew quilt!  I'm so excited for our growing family.

One more nephew

We welcomed another nephew to the family last December.   It was only slightly late due to the Christmas crafting that I did.  Here are some in process and finished pictures for your viewing pleasure.











I won't even link to the pattern.  It would show you how badly I screwed up.  I did NOT follow the directions.

I loved doing the skinny dark grey stripes .  I loved making those figure 8's.
