I just finished my first-ever quilts. I made quilts for Tyler & Colton from their old receiving blankets, and added in some extra, solid-color fabric to brighten them up. Jenny, a playgroup friend, gave me the pattern and instruction. I couldn't have done it without her teaching me along the way. The quilts are far, far, FAR from perfect, especially since I made up "my own way" of finishing the edges (yeah...I'm definitely a beginner). But I guess that's some of the charm. I know the boys are too little to care right now, but maybe someday they'll appreciate these, and maybe someday, now that I know more of what I'm doing, I can try again.

Good Job you domestic queen.
I am surprised you did not make your stockings too...
Wow! Those are awesome Kel! Can you make me one too? I'm a lil jealous of the boys! Very cool!
Oh Kelly, those are great! I really really wish I could have gone and learned how to make those. Maybe one day, when I have time I can. (free time?? what's that??) ; )
great job again, the boys are lucky!
Wow, Kelly, I'm so impressed by you! The quilts look great and I think it's awesome that you have the motivation to tackle something so difficult!
YAY!!!! Kelly, they look GREAT! Good Job!
You did a great job, it looks like you've been doing it forever! Good Job! I still have to finish my. I haven't really been wanting to sew, I do need to finish my Avent Calendar ASAP.
Kelly...those turned out so cute! I know the kids are going to appreciate those....take lots of pictures with them holding them.
Great job!
Good job, Kelly. I'm excited to finish Leila's so I give it to her for her birthday. Can't wait for the next MNO.
