Best quilts have a baby on them

I finished these two quilts months ago. Three weeks ago, a friend had her fourth daughter.

Nothing better than a baby on a quilt. Even if she doesn’t appear very happy here.

Much better! Yup that is an incredible head of hair!

Trust Mama to get the best picture of all. This little peanut is only 3 weeks old but very alert. I know she’ll love the quilt.

Sisters on the quilt!. Through the years I have made them dresses, another quilt and a knit blanket. They are delightful sisters.

I started appliquéing the clipper ship. You’ll notice the two long masts? Ooops, I had to remove them to make way for a sail.

That is more like like. I’ll have to share closer images of the sails. The fabric isn’t solid white, there is a very faint blue batik there. I think this will be much easier than I thought.

It’s that time of year, making items for my friend Roberta. In true workshop manner. She designs, I sew. Works for both of us. These projects are pretty quick and not up to my standards of perfection. She is happy, so it’s all good.
