Ready and Waiting

For My Beautiful Little Grand-Darling

Butterfly and I covered the mattress with some laminated fabric 

and then made a matching fitted sheet of soft flannel.

If anyone is interested in how to make a fitted sheet for any size mattress, 

let me know and I will post a tutorial. 

The quilt is an old favorite, 

my Dresden Square design.

 Read Here for how I made this quilt  

This little nest is Butterfly approved.

Ready and waiting ~ two more days!

Getting Ready

Butterfly and I are hard at work getting ready for some very special visitors.

My Grand-Darling is coming to visit next week!

I am getting her playhouse ready.

She has outgrown the pack and play type sleeping arrangements,

so I made a temporary mattress for her out of an old comforter and a sheet

and she is going to sleep in her own little house.

Then Butterfly and I covered it with laminated cotton.

Butterfly has been very helpful during all of this prep work.

Butterfly and I am making a sheet for it today.

Almost ready for our company.

Butterfly says, "what do you mean this house is not for me?"

Sorry, Butterfly.  

This little house is for the Little Miss.

:-) 

Somedays ...

... you just need to cuddle with your kitty and your quilt.

Today was one of those days. 

Feeling better now.

I do not know about you but I find summer a great time for sewing.

It is so hot outside sometimes, I just want to stay inside where it is cool

and enjoy my pretty fabric.

Sometimes I take a small hand project outside and sit on my yard swing and stitch.

What do you do in summer?

If you will be sewing and stitching then share with us. 

Hope to see you joining us ... :)

A New Opposites + Project

This lovely layer cake is 

Flow by Zen Chic for Moda Fabrics

I have a layer cake that I sorted into pairs

to make a baby quilt with the

 Opposites +

design concept.

Obviously this will be more than a two color quilt.

I am trying to decide which of the following blocks to use:

Block 1 

or 

Block 2 

?????

Your thoughts would be appreciated. 

TIA!

Butterfly is my quilty helper tonight ...

I think she is also trying to lay claim to the quilt 

that I said I was going to give to Katniss 

at the end of summer.

Butterfly thinks all my quilts are hers.

Maybe she just wants my comfy chair... ;)

It is already Day 3 of the
