My projects

I have been sewing all I can lately. I have been able to check a bunch of projects off my list... Before Christmas I was able to finish a Sunbonnet Sue blanket for Wes' Aunt Charlotte's Granddaughter. I took pictures of it but they were on my camera when I lost it. I also made a matching outfit for an 18" doll for it. I only have pictures of the the sunbonnet and apron because I'd given the dress and bloomers to Aunt Charlotte with the blanket.

I'm also working on a jean blanket for Wes. I have all the blocks done I just need to put it together. However, I like to jump from one project to the next and then certain projects take priority. I was going to try to have it done for Christmas now I'm hoping it'll get done by his birthday in March.

I just finished matching dresses for Shalon and Sydney. They aren't quite identical I didn't have enough fabric to do them exactly the same. I had to be very creative when I was cutting them out. I wanted to get them finished so they could wear them in February. I should have made them a size bigger but I made them according to their measurements. They can wear them a little while at least.

I also just finished cross stitching the last block for a baby blanket that I've been working on since we got married. (I started it when we lived in Rawlins in a travel trailer and I didn't have anything to do) Now I need to put the blocks together and quilt it.

I'm halfway finished with a blessing outfit for the baby. It's turning out really cute. I have to get it done soon because we are blessing the baby when my parents come out so the baby will only be a few days old.

Shalon will probably be very happy when I get my sewing done. I regret to say that when I'm really trying hard to work on things I let her watch PBS. I swore I'd never let the tv be a babysitter but....
