Baby Toys



Here are the baby toys I made for a shower gift recently. I used the pattern off of Michael Miller Fabrics Blog, http://makingitfun.blogspot.com/. They have some really great patterns for baby gifts you may want to make and give. I didn't have the fun black, white and red fabric, so I just got out the most colorful fabric I could find. I think they were a hit. I also adapted the pattern to make 3 smaller, two-sided toys...for the diaperbag or what have you. You should check out some of the other patterns they have.

Baby Quilt for Michael


This is the quilt top I made for our driver's new baby girl. I finally completed it a couple months ago and gave it to him as a gift. Since he and his wife plan on having many more children, the red, yellow and blue will be great as a hand-me-down to younger siblings, boy and girl alike.

The Crack Fabric Quilt almost complete


Well a long time ago I showed a sample quilt square using the lovely Nigerian Crack Fabric I found here in Nigeria. Well, here is the completed quilt...almost. I still have to bind it and finish it out. But I thought I would share since it has been FOREVER since I posted something. My inspiration for this quilt came from Kaffe Fasset's book Museum Quilts.


Maybe I should make it a goal to post every two weeks or something...lord knows I need some kind of goal...
