A Baby Quilt for Adelyn Joy...



In a family of many nephews and no nieces...
with lots of grandsons and no grand daughters...yet...*wink*

It Seams to Be Sew...
that a little Great Niece should be 
cherished!

Meet Adelyn Joy...





My first Great Niece...


Along with that great distinction...
should be a lovely little quilt
just for her...



Built with Sweetwater fabrics...and a soft muslin
backing...this little quilt is a world of firsts too.



It is a first time attempt at free motion quilting
a new design for me on my
Janome 7700 Horizon quilting machine..

Scared to death to ruin this,
one of my very First quilt tops...



I decided to just go for it!
It was really quick and fun too!

Just knowing I now have another set of 
stitching under my belt...
gives me a lot of new confidence 
to keep trying new patterns!




And soon, I hope to be making another one of 
these sweet baby quilts for my other nephew and
his sweet wife when their new baby (gender unknown to surprise)
arrives later this year...


Happy Weekend All!

Baby Goodies...


This week has been full of sewing for a new GB...(Grand baby)   :)
I love sewing for little ones and I love the materials
I get to work with.
 
For the newest project, I am using only fabrics from
all requested of course by the new Mama to be...
:)
Here's some of what I am working with:
 
 




 
 
 
 
 
Aren't these just cute?
 
The pattern is called - Giant Hexies Quilt Pattern
She has the pattern for sale on her Etsy site HERE
Oh My...How cute is her pattern!
Don't you agree?
 
 
 
Just darling...
It is going so fast...but not fast enough...
Her shower is Saturday and I won't be finished by then...
But I will have it in the mail next week for sure...
but not before I post it here!
 
What are you working on today?

A Cake Walk Finish!

Such a joy to get the opportunity to make a quilt for someone...
especially something that you hope will be with them for some time to come...


 This one...as they are all, will be missed...
But hopefully really loved in it's new home...
 
That's my finish this week...anyone else have one to share?

It's a Cake Walk...

It's rare that I get an ENTIRE weekend to sew...
But I did this past weekend!






I started a new baby quilt and I must say, it was sooo easy-peasy!
It's a pattern from a book called Fast Fat Quarter Quilts, and the pattern
is called 
Cocoa Cakewalk...


 
I just changed to the colors I wanted
and here is my offering for today...
 


I will quilt and bind it tonight, so check back or watch on Instagram for the
finished quilt!
 
Happy Monday All!!!
