last bootie posts, i promise




here are a couple more pair of baby shoes i made for my future grandson.

i won't take up any more space on my blog with baby shoes, i know i have overdone it.

but they were all fun to make and i wanted to share.

;o)

sweet little kimono booties


just finished this super sweet little pair of kimono style baby booties for my future granddaughter, luve (pronounced love).

made out of soft baby flannel.

i hope she has super tiny feet because they are very small. i will definitely enlarge the pattern for the next pair!

vintage dresses into a baby quilt?



found these two vintage dresses at my local thrift and decided they would make a great quilt for my future granddaughter.

super psychedelic fabrics in a cotton pique waffle weave. gave them a good wash and dry, grabbed my seam ripper and started taking them apart. the darts were the hardest darned things to remove...making me remember what a perfectionist i was at sewing darts back in the 60's.

i will be posting pictures of my progress with this quilt if you are interested in following along.
