it's been. . . .forever.

I was going to post pics of all the things that I have been working on. It seems as though some of the things that I have finished and given away I didn't take pics of. Ugh. . .some day I will learn. I do have some pictures though.


Lets see. . . . . . the projects that I worked on since I last posted and all through the holidays. . .
#1- a quilt for one of my favorite exec at the bank. She is an amazing leader, I had every employee in the bank sign or write a message on a quilt block, Then I put it all together and had it machine quilted. It turned out SO cool, and it was a surprise and she LOVES it! That was a very fulfilling project. The signatures are on the purple squares. I didn't want it to be painfully obvious that it was a signature quilt, I wanted her to still want to use it. I hate to say it, but most signature quilts are done with a light colored or white fabric and they are down right ugly! I am pretty proud of this one.

#2- a car seat cover, (no Pic) you know the kind that make a tent over a baby car seat and velcro to the handle. I made one for my new beautiful niece Annie May. Her mom Lynette really liked it. I made it with a scalloped edge, and it was the first one I ever attempted, but I think that it may become my go to gift for baby showers. It was really easy, and every baby needs one, right?
#3-A quilt for miss Annie May that my mom and I are making. Top completed, the finishing is not. . . I love it, I think that it just screams trendy little girl. :)
#4- A snappy little change purse. These are really fun and simple to make and they kind of Snap shut.
#5- A quilt in progress that I am making for a friend of mine that had a baby a few months back . I hope I complete before the baby get too grown up. :)
#6-A purse for a friend of mine that LOVES Disney. I think that she really liked it. I love her.
