Claire's 1st Birthday Present, Doll

i finished Claire's doll in the knick of time! She comes complete with her own dress with matching belt and scarf - all made by me. Her stomach is embroidered with 'To Claire, Love Aunt Patsy'. Hope she loves it and drags it everywhere with her until all the yarn falls out of her head!

Baby Shower Gift

Mrs Lynette Milligan is expecting her frst baby this august! The ladies gathered yesterday for her shower, these two onesies were part of my gift.

The 'i love bella' pic was pulled from Lynette's Facebook into Photoshop where I added the text. On the lavender onesie, i used my badass embroidery machine to stitch 'baby milligan' next to the hand sewn rosette.

I'm ready to start a local Stitch and Bitch. What's your craft specialty?

Quilt for Nola part Deux

The top is all pieced!! Nola's birthday is May 23rd, so whats that leave me? Two weeks? OMG!! I have to put the layers altogether, quilt hearts up the big pink row and whatever else i'm going to quilt, and finish with the blanket binding. You think I'll get it done?!?!? Who wants to babysit ;)?

Just a glimpse at Nola's birthday preset. My lil' angel will be 1 next month!! i have been working on this mostly pink quilt since 2005. Its almost like I knew she was coming :). Cant wait to finish it!!

Maryjane Booties

My first post from my iPhone!! I finished these booties for nola today :). They are a little big on her, but she'll grow into them just in time for summer! I found the pattern at http://taoofcraft.typepad.com/. Cute pattern, but admittedly bummed there is a visible seem allowance in the interior. Adorable nonethelesa, and if i find time i will make another smaller pair :).
