Another sewing project for you to say nice things about

 I completed this baby quilt today.  I chose the fabric before I knew the baby's sex but I think I picked girly colors anyway.  It turned out pretty feminine.  I love it!  It's bright and cheery.  That's what I'm hoping to make the nursery like.

Another Small Dress

Here's another dress I made today for my little girl.  This one was easier than the last and I think it turned out cute!  The pattern was free on-line and I used left over fabric from a quilt.  This dress was basically free (besides the 2-3 hours it took to make it).

Little Dress

Bennett and I bought our first baby clothing last week.  I think we got a good deal ($2 per clothing item).  As we were walking through Macys I noticed the simplest baby dresses were being sold for $40-$60!  I decided I could make one for way less than that and I was right.  The pattern was $3 and I got the fabric for $3.  It took me 2-3 hours to make but I think it turned out really cute.  
This is the front:


Here's the back:

Now I just need to get some baby clothing hangers so I can hang up our baby's first dress.  I think Mom has some baby clothing patterns in her sewing room.  I also think I'm going to borrow them.
