This quilt has been in the works for quite a while. And now it is offically done. HAND SEWN binding and all. I haven't washed it yet for that scrunched up look. Sara wouldn't let me. It's hers and She wanted to use it right away. It's backed with pale yellow minky and all I want to do is pet it. Seriously. It's that lovely.
LeAnn did an awesome job quilting it! She is very talented. I have another quilt that she did that I still have to HAND SEW the binding on. Actually, I still have to get the fabric for the binding.
I have a few more projects to post, but I'll keep you in suspense! I've been sewing like a maniac. I have 3 quilt tops waiting to be quilted and a dress or two for Sara. Any suggestions on what to sew for little boys. Besides quilts?

Ohhhhh that is LOVELY!!! Love the quilting, and YEAH for you on the Hand Sewing!! You ARE a sewing maniac! WOW!
For boys - I used to make my little boy (now 16) shorts - with whales and sharks and basketballs and soccer balls. I also made him little vests for holidays - St.Paddy's,Valentine's Day, Easter. How about some cute shirts?
You could also make him a TeePee! a sleeping bag (quilted of course!),a robe, jammies or just jammie pants.
Oh, I know that feeling of petting the minkee.....it just adds so much to a quilt. It is beautiful!
Little boys.....i would be making monster and robot dolls and I love the idea of the teepee. Corrie might have a pattern. Also, those cool car/airplane/RR panels.
Gorgeous! i love that print! Minkee should be on everything. Leann did great. Good for you. A teepee would be really fun, I need to make one.
I'm catching up with your posts and just have to say that the quilt is AWESOME! So beautiful! :)
