Sewing Day

Katie took a really good nap and Derek and Mikey were out, so I finally had time to set up my sewing machine and hem some pants that have been sitting on my table for a month.

I just felt like sewing more, so I made Katie a little pillow from old receiving blankets. I don't know if she'll use it, but it's soft so maybe she'll like it in her bed.

Then I got really inspired and made a little quilt/pad for Katie's cradle. Now her dolls will have something a little softer to sleep on :) I cut and sewed all the squares, put quilt batting in it and sewed on a solid color back! I'm very impressed with myself if you can't tell already. I can't wait for you to see it in person!

Wow! I'm impressed. I especially love the quilt for the baby cradle! The pillow is cute...but I'm not sure if Katie will use it unless you put it on the floor by the door!! Ha ha! J2

Ditto regarding that pillow, j2! I was totally thinking the same thing. Good job, Joni. The lines look super-straight. See you soon!
