The Sewing Craze Continues...


My sewing machine has been really busy this fall. My parents were kind to lend me the wooden cradle that I slept in as a baby. However, the dimensions are smaller than the cradle sets sold nowadays, so I created...

this!:


Here's a hint. Having a baby? Redecorating a room? Buy a few extra curtains or flat sheets if your set comes with them. Then, you have yards of matching fabric to use to make pillows, cradle sheets and bumpers, quilts, throw pillows, boppy covers, matching basket liners, etc.



I JUST started on my baby girl quilt and will post about it's progress soon. The basket liners are next on the list and will hopefully come together in the next few weeks.

As you all know, my fall crafting has had a single minded focus.

What are all of YOUR fall crafts?
