Projects, projects, projects

I have been having a ton of fun with my new sewing machine and I thought I would post a few pictures of the things I have made. These two little baby dresses were the easiest things to make and they are so cute!! I found this free pattern online and decided to try it out. I think they turned out great and I can't wait to try them on Avery!


This quilt still needs to be quilted and bound but I think you get the idea. I started working on this before I was pregnant with AVery and then stopped for some reason. Then when I found out I was having a girl I started it up again and just finished piecing it together a couple weeks ago. It is the first quilt I actually used a pattern on and it is far from perfect. I learned a lot from it though and I really enjoyed working on it.


Haha, so Landon told me not to post a picture of these ghosts because he thinks they are creepy but I think they are kinda cute. They are made with that cheese cloth stuff and they are pretty easy to make. I don't know if I will display them anywhere in my house though for Landon's sake.

This was also just something fun to make that I saw on Martha Stewart. I thought it would be a cute fall decoration for my kitchen table.

First off, I love the baby dresses Kelsi! Do you have a link to the pattern? I am not very good at sewing clothes, but if it's an easy pattern--maybe I can figure it out! They are so so cute! I love the fabric you used.
And good job on the quilt--I am super impressed. very cute colors.
And that centerpiece on your table is so cute!
I love it all! Come to my house and do my projects for me, because I can't seem to get anything done around here :)
