I've been working hard to finish up some quilts. These 3 all needing binding and I finally got around to it!
This first quilt is a true scrap quilt- there is absolutely no color scheme!
This quilt has waited over 3 years to get its binding sewn on...
This is Mei's baby quilt. It was my first attempt at using a scalloped-edge...so easy- not sure why I waited so long to try it!

Catching Up
I definitely have some catching up to do on this blog. I realize this is a blog mostly for me to keep track of all of my projects. Some pictures of past projects completed:
My oldest's baptism dress (made over a year ago). I used Butterick 4967. Gorgeous and not nearly as difficult as I originally thought...either that or my ability to read a pattern is improving!
Easter dresses 2012. Got a smashing deal on bright yellow knit- it was on clearance! No pattern here- just made it up as I went along.
An apron I made for a friend:
A maternity maxi skirt...I'm not even pregnant anymore (that shows how far behind I am with blogging). I roughly followed this tutorial HERE.
Here my shirt is lifted a bit to show off the maternity band (vertical stripes).
A newborn-sized, crocheted owl beanie. Pattern found HERE.
Blessing dress I crocheted. I purchased the pattern HERE.

February Projects
My friend is having baby #6! Can you believe it?! She's a brave woman. She's having a girl- her baby shower was this past week. I made her a dress and some matching burp cloths with the leftover fabric. So cute.
More burp cloths (I will keep these for myself!)
A maxi dress for my growing belly! I've been lucky to find quite a bit of fabric on clearance at various places. I've made a couple of other dresses but haven't bothered to take pictures yet.
I heart Joel Dewberry's new Aviary line. I decided to experiment and see if I can create a diaper bag. I loosely followed this tutorial HERE- I adjusted the measurements to make it smaller and added more pockets on the interior (3 of them being elastic pockets).
