Dresses for the girls!!

I was busy yesterday making dresses, one for my daughter Katelynn and one for my niece Payton. The are about the same size and I made the dresses large enough so that they should be able to wear them next year too. They will be able to wear them this winter with tights and a long sleeve shirt. They are just too cute!

Here is Katelynn and Payton! They are just too cute! (I know I already said that but just look at them!)I worked really hard to keep their hands in their laps and not in their mouths!

My nephew, Matthew, wanted in the picture too!

My son Andrew held up the dresses for me yesterday so I could get a picture of the backs. And of course he is shirtless. He has shirts, really he does. He just prefers to not wear them when we are home! :)

Now I want to make even more dresses and shirts and clothes! Wonder when I am going to find time to make quilts now? I did manage to make a block to finish off row 9 of my Slyvia Bridal Sampler. Will take a picture of that in the next day or so.

Spoiled!

It had been a hectic past few weeks. Lots going on with my family. I have been trying to spoil my mom lately, she deserves it. We went shopping at the Local Quilt Shop and she picked out some fabric for a purse I was going to make for her. I surprised her with the completed purse and 2 matching little pouches, one for her camera and I am not sure what she used the other one for. I had my son, Andrew, model the purse for me and he was not happy. He said "Mom I am not a lady and I do not use a purse!" He is so funny.

Let's see, what else have I done? I did a paint chip challenge in one of my online groups. They send you 3 paint chips and you can add one other color and make something. So I went with a landscape with a couple of cactus and again spoiled both my parents with it and gave it to them. They have a vacation home in Arizona. 

With this quilt I spoiled my daughter Katelynn. She loves Mickey Mouse so much! She has a stuffed Mickey Mouse as big as her that she carries around with her all day when we are at work. I also have another Mickey Mouse quilt for her that is twin size, the top is finished just have to load it on the frame and quilt it.

And here is my little star! We went to the beach over the labor day weekend.

Then one last thing. (I really should blog more often so that I don't have such large posts.) This was a round robin that I worked on. I added the flying geese and then the border next to it between the geese and the pinwheels. She got an awesome quilt!

I think that is all that I have for you today! Thanks for stopping by.
