Baby Blankets and more….

My goal of sewing a block a day for my Pony Club Quilt has gone out the window this past week. I’ve decided it was time to get a bunch of baby stuff done for my granddaughter who is due to arrive on August 23rd. We are having a shower for my daughter the end of June and I want to have some things done for her by then. So I’ve been making burp pads and receiving blankets…..

I’ve got over 20 burp pads made and about 13 flannel receiving blankets made….I give a lot of both of these away whenever I know someone whose had a baby, so I usually try to have some extra on hand. The next item on the agenda for my new grandbaby is another quilt, which Lesley picked out…It will be a chevron quilt.DSC03828I’ve been embroidering in the evenings while I’m sitting in my comfortable chair….I’ve got two more of the large blocks and two more of the smaller blocks to embroider and then I’ll be ready to start on the piecing of my Vintage Tins quilt….

I’ve also been doing some stitching on my wool quilt, “Primitive Garden”….only one more border and it will be done! I just got the last one in the mail about a week ago….This border is the one on the left side…..Now only the top border to get done and it will be ready to send off to be quilted!
