A new quilt is on the way. I have 11 days to attempt to complete this before I see the new little chic-a-dee.

I made a new reversible jacket to sell on Etsy. I just love this pattern by Kitschy Choo. And I hate to see this jacket go.

Quilt Update

My Christmas quilt went from okay to disaster. Too many ideas and new techniques lead to disaster!!!!. I should have known this would be the case from the beginning. When we find oyourself starting and restarting at the beginning of a project and constantly readjusting it just spells trouble. I should have saved it for next year and given it time to forgive me. But as for now, it has now been cut to pieces and in the process of becoming a doll quilt, coasters and hot pads. So frustrating. It was just too bad to even photograph as a what not to do. I don't want to even think about. Sorry there will be no finale.

Working on a small quilt for my niece Sara for Christmas. It's in the earlier stages. I am adding some pre-quilting before the main quilting. I want to front and back to have a different quilted look. We'll see how it turns out. Here is first little glimpse.

I am stuck at home with the flu this week. Not sure I am going to be much up to crafting. But over the weekend I worked on an outfit for my cousin-in-law's son Cole. It is classic jon-jon. I made it fully reversible with ties at the neck and snaps on bottom. I extended the legs slightly to give it few extra months of wear by just rolling up the legs into a cuff. I even made him a personalized Clemson pin. Can't wait to see him wear it. And for those of you Carolina fans out there. I am a gamecock and it pains me to have to sew Clemson attire. Hopefully, we'll pull off any win this week.
