A dress & baby quilt

I made this dress for my daughter a couple weeks ago. The pattern was for a night gown, but once I had it made, it seemed like a dress. Then Colette wanted to wear it to school, so I decided that it would be a dress. I think this fabric is so cute:



This quilt was made for my sister. She is expecting baby number 2 on Nov. 7th:







I also made some cute pj pants for Gavin, and I have a dress for Colette 98% done, but I don't have pics of them yet. More later!

I made a quilt!



I've been wanting to try to make quilt for a while now, and I finally just did it. A friend is having a baby girl next month, so I made this for her.



I thought it would be really hard, and take a long time, but it went really well. I started on Saturday afternoon. I only worked on it for about an hour & a half (but I got the top done!). Then Sunday evening I quilted it & put the binding on. It really didn't take that long - I could totally do it again!



It's a good thing, too... I have a couple quilts planned for Christmas presents this year!
