Teeny Baby Dresses

My new little niece Kylie was born almost 2 weeks ago now and was only 35 weeks 5 days and weighed in at 5 lbs 14 oz. and 17 inches.

She's soooooo cute! And squishy looking! I'm very jealous that I can't hold her and am travel restricted.

Anyway, I whipped up two "itty bitty baby dresses" for her in a few of the beautiful Liberty Art Fabrics Bloomsbury Collection fabrics.

Free pattern can be found here.

I mean, she is "itty bitty."

But even then they're still too big for her!!

So cute. I need another girl... 

So I did some "birthing" last night.

Lots of it.

Thankfully of the sewing variety and not the baby variety!!

Flipping little coasters right side out does remind one of childbirth though.

Disturbing.

It was time again to make the forty coasters for an annual retreat group with the theme "Stinky Feet Retreat" this year.

Hilarious, huh?

So I went with high heels and coordinates.

I hope they like them and that they have a great retreat.

So nice.

Sharing that is. 

I love getting pictures from people of what they have made with my patterns. 

This one was particularly gorgeous and different in a non-Christmas finish so I thought I should share it with you.

The pattern is "Dash Away All" found here.

Feel free to go leave Brea, a new-to-quilting artist, some love in her Etsy shop. 

Arcadia... Is this my 5th?

Let's see...

There was this one.

And this one.

Oh, and that one too.

Yes, and another over there.

Even some coasters.

I've loved this fabric line for a LONG time. 

Fabric line is Arcadia by Sanae for Moda.

I've been hoarding some quarter yard cuts and additional yardage. 

LOVE the backing print.

And especially those nested circles.

This one ended up being a large baby or small lap quilt size at 42.5" x 47".

In the shop. 

Birds and Berries Part 2

I almost forgot to post this one. 

It's going under the tree for my little who for Christmas.

I think it will be a great little throw blanket for her future bedroom.

We move Dec. 22 - yeah, just in time to make Christmas MORE crazy. 

The fabric is Birds and Berries by Lauren and Jessi Jung for Moda.

I did exclude the purple colorway from the rest of the line. 

Oh I'm getting more excited for Christmas just looking at this!!! :D 

Cuzco

I've had a BLAST sewing this one. 

Such vibrant colors. 

A rainbow rectangular prism.

Fabric line is Cuzco by Kate Spain for Moda.
Love.
Makes me wish one of these babies was going to be a girl.

In the shop. SOLD.

200!

Just realized this is my 200th post.

That actually implies a lot of stitches.

:o)

I also realized sometime three days ago that it is easier and faster to finish projects you've already started then to start and finish completely new ones.

Wow.

Seems like a statement of the obvious, but I really think I put things away thinking, "eh, I'll do that one later when I get more time."

Yeah, like I'm ever going to get more time.

In fact, I'm 20.5 weeks pregnant with twins... there won't be any more time for a long time.

Back to the stitches.

On deck today:

A granny square table runner in Joy by Kate Spain for Moda. These blocks were the leftovers from the "production" of this quilt.

Some very happy coasters in Meadow Friends by Deb Strain for Moda.

A small table runner in Birds and Berries by Lauren and Jessi Jung for Moda.

I only used the purple and coral for this one.

I couldn't find any way to make the purple work with the blue for me...

They weren't even combined in a print so I figured I was allowed to exclude them from each other.

I actually have a quilt in the rest of the jelly roll... I should post pictures of it tomorrow.

I'm keeping it for my little who.

As I was quilting it (no, not cutting, piecing, basting), I realized it matched her future room colors and that she would NEED it to throw on her bed. :o)

Yeah, it took me that long.

And some coasters in Summersville by Lucie Summers for Moda.

Loved this line.

I have a twin sized quilt in these fabrics that needs to be quilted.

That project lost momentum when we moved...

Lame me.

These have all been listed in the shop. :)
