Charmalade

I started Moda Bakeshop's Charmalade this week using Fig Tree's Butterscotch and Roses Charm squares. I am doing this as a Christmas gift for a friend and coworker and wanted it to be a bit larger then the one in the tutorial so I am using an extra pack of charm squares. It is coming along slowly but surely, what with working and kiddos but it promises to be quite lovely.

Having Fun With Hats

My niece as well as my husband's boss are both expecting baby boys. I could not resist making some hats for the little guys to use this fall and winter but think I may have gotten a bit carried away. Oh well, they was loads of fun. Just need to put the eyes on the puppy hats.

Pinwheel Sampler Completed

Today we gave my daughter's teacher the quilt I made for her. This teacher has taught three of my four children a total of four years and this was a gift to express our gratitude for all that she has done for our children.

A New Project in the Works

I have had this fabric tucked away for a couple years just waiting for the perfect project. I decided I wanted to make something special for the kindergarten teacher at the school the kiddos go to. We have had the benefit of her teaching our children for a total of four years and I felt a quilt was just the thing. I have admired  the pinwheel sampler that Rachel of PS I Quilt did a couple years ago and think that is what I will do with this fabric.
