Birthday Quilt

I made a quilt for my younger daughter's 18th birthday. It's a quilt for her to use at college, it's not fancy but it is warm, cuddly and cute.

The pieced side features fabric with music themes, she's planning to major in music performance, she loves to sing :)


The back side is fleece that looks like an indian blanket.

Happy Birthday sweetie!!!

Diaper Bags Galore........

Over the next few months I will be making and gifting 4 diaper bags with accessories. Seems it's the season for babies :)

This diaper bag is a standard style that I make, 2 front pockets, and an elastic topped pocket on each side panel.



Black bags are so hard to photograph so here's a close-up of this fabulous fabric, it has a nice sheen and texture.



The inside features 2 pockets on one side and a zippered pocket on the other side (note green ribbon attached to the zipper pull) for small and/or personal items.



I also made a burp cloth (a prefolded cloth diaper with flannel sewn on the center section) and a mini cuddle blankie with teether link.



Thanks for visiting and stay tuned for more diaper bags....I will most likely be trying some new styles so I don't get bored :)
