A few more crafty items managed to make it to completion this week while the kids fought off the remains of the flu bug.
A knitted bunny requested by a friend a while back. I had to reverse engineer this one. It was a challenge, but I'm 95% happy with the results. My friend was pretty excited too!
A wonky log cabin style baby blanket, approx 45" square. Each block is 10" square. I loved the freedom in this style of sewing. There's no measuring involved! It's a very improvisational approach, picking colors and sizes of pieces as you go. I can see where some people would find this a bit scary. My favorite part is the scrappy pieced binding. I really wanted to try free motion quilting on this project, but I couldn't get the right sewing foot in time. Don't worry, there's another quilt on the back burner. :)
Sara! I love the bunny! Is that the quilt you made for Tobias? Maybe you can come over sometime and try out my stitch regulator...we can free-motion together!
