Finished Projects

Pin It Now!
**Kate, if you're reading this, you're going to see a photo of something I made Levi for Christmas.  Stop reading now if you don't want to see it!**

I've been busy finishing up my WIPs (works in progress) this week.  I finished three projects.  Two were orders from my Etsy shop, but one is a Christmas gift.  

Yes, a Christmas gift is finished!  In October!


Levi is my youngest nephew.  I used this fabulous argyle print that I picked up at Hobby Lobby over the summer.  For the quilting I followed every 3 tiny white line in the print, which gave me a great diamond pattern on the front of the quilt.  

I am a big fan of unique, personalized gifts.  I used Heat n Bond to create the appliqué and then stitched around the edge.


I also finished this simple skirt for a friend's daughter.  I'm not sure what it is about this particular flannel, but it was not the easiest thing to work with.  The skirt is really cute, though.

I also made 11 felt bow headbands this week.  I love these.  They are adorable.  I think every girl needs one of every color, don't you agree?
