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.

chenile baby quilt - the 'real' quilt

finally finished the chenile baby quilt that was supposed to be the quilt for the baby shower.

after this project, i really don't think i will ever work with chenile again. but now i have a walking foot for my old viking sewing machine, which made the task much easier.

teeny tiny peace sign baby booties

new (first) grandson is coming very soon so i made him this cute pair of baby booties with peace signs and a bright orange flower power design. i am in the process of tweaking the pattern a little and preparing to make more.

learning how to quilt

i am excited to have two grandbabies on the way - a boy and a girl. nope, not twins. one of each from both my son and my daughter!

yippee!

been working on making quilts since i found out that i was 'finally' going to be a grandparent. never have i made a quilt before.

this has been a real experience, but very enjoyable.

this is the first quilt: made out of fabric i had laying around. my very first quilt with many errors. unfortunately this quilt ended up being a shower gift for my future grandson because the 'real' quilt i was making for the baby shower created many headaches and wasn't ready in time.

i will blog on the 'real' quilt soon.
