Twins...

Straight of the bat I'd like to clarify... No I'm not having twins.

Rather I'm talking about the latest order to leave my hot little hands.

Ahhh red and cream, what a classic combo!

And I cannot I repeat CANNOT make a red quilt with out polka dots. It's a sickness I tell you!!

I ordered a the fabrics from Pink Castle Fabrics and although I didn't order enough in the first batch after another order of the cotton couture cream, the quilt top was done.

And as requested by the mum to be, the girls names where embroidered on.

Just a simple pattern and simple fabrics were used but I had to give it a pop of red with a solid backing!

I think these would look adorable in their matching cots. As I mentioned red and cream is a classic combo... can't really go wrong with that!

Oh and just to prove I'm growing a person... this is about all I can see of my feet lately. Well maybe I cheated and stuck my bottom out a little. ;)

A finished quilt.

Well I've finished and sent this quilt of to it's new home and thankfully it was loved!

I always get a little nervous gifting a quilt, even when I make a commissioned quilt actually.

So when I got the text confirming how much it was loved, I breathed a sigh of relief!!

I think I'll always be that way. Nervous habbit I guess.

Another one.

Although my blogging has been very slow, my sewing machine has been working full time!

Lots of sewing for our lil man and a few quilt orders on the go as well.

This quilt was requested from a photo of this quilt I made for my niece.

Same pattern just in pinks and purples.

And for a little contrast I used a pale blue for the back. I think it helps the quilt from being to sweet. Besides, I do love a surprise pop of colour on the back. 

It was a fun project with a little embroidery thrown in for that finishing touch!

How adorable is her name.  

I promise I'll be back to share more of my makes soon. We're at 26 weeks and I feel like a beached whale. I've been told I'm not that big, but you know how it is when your preggers. And you know I would never exaggerate these things. ;P

For our little Man...

Well as you may have guessed... as soon as I found out we were having a little boy I got started on a quilt just for him. An as I mentioned I'm crazy about blue and grey together so naturally thats what I did.

I've been wanting an excuse to make some star blocks, so I jumped right in...

The only thing I cant decide is if I should set them on point or in rows? 

What do you think??
