Baby Woo's Quilt

I am not sure if I have posted the pictures that I took while putting Baby Woo's quilt together. I was nervous to do it, but like I said before I had to get over being a chicken
I had quite a collection of pretty vintage fabrics already that seemed to work perfectly together! I picked up a few other bits from Heidi at Becnicks .
And then I started!

Cutting out the square 4.5 x 4.5 

Laying out the squares! 


Strips done! Ready to be pressed. 

half of the strips put together! 

QUILTING! Go! little blue go! 

The very last row of quilting....I was a little sad it was about to be over I was enjoying the process so much. 

I ended up machine sewing the binding too, my hand stitching skills are horrid! 

The whole sha-bang! 

I was enjoying quilting so much I made a bib too! 
:)

Next I want to make some fabric blocks like these! I'm just waiting on the toy stuffing I ordered to arrive. 

after the blocks will probably be the crib dust ruffle! 


My little blue Jones sewing machine has been the busiest she's been in years! But she's a trooper and running well! My Great Aunt Jenny & Great Grandmother, who were extremely skilled seamstresses, must be looking over my shoulder, making sure everything is going well.

Pinterest Tutes.

Cozy Quick Blankie

I have found some of the CUTE-EST things I've ever seen on Pinterest! Have you heard of Pinterest? Are you on it?! I am so totally addicted! "Pinterest is an vision board-styled social photo sharing website where users can create and manage theme-based image collections".
The fun part for me is the new access to so many great tutorials and recipes all in one place with a sneak peek! It really is so addictive.  Oh the crafty & tasty possibilities! 





oh I could just go on forEVER! 
You can even find me on Pinterest :)
and I promise you'll become addicted too!

little poster

I've not managed to leave the house today, but at least I did get this little poster done for Baby Woo's room. It's a silly rhyme Mr Woo's Granddad used to say. My Grandpa used to tell stories about the adventures of Tom Cat & Bob Cat. I'm working on an idea to bring those stories to life. In the mean time...
So what'd ya think?


*oh and please don't reuse the poster without asking. I made it for Baby Woo. If you'd like a copy I'll happily make one for you too*
