I'd Rather Be Quilting
Rather than be miserably because of dry & itchy eyes on top of running nose every day, I have been quilting and sewing like crazy. At least it keeps my mind off my allergies and keep my brain awake.
I sewed this pin cushion this morning. I'm using pink/rose/brown/beige combination for my sewing projects a lot nowadays.
Last week I quilted this blanket for Sr. Nor's 10 month old daughter. I quilted another blanket for her four years old daughter but forgot to take a picture before I gave it to her.
Yesterday I quilted a baby blanket using the combination of fabric below for Sr. Ju Qing's newborn daughter (April 12). I forgot to take a picture of the finished blanket as I was in a hurry to bring it to her.
Now I am quilting a lap blanket for my dear sister. After looking at some pictures of homemade quilted blankets on several blogs, I got inspired to design the blanket like so.
I am using this retro design fabric for the backing, which my dear sister has been eyeing since she last saw it on my blog.
Daughter has been helping me by handing out safety pins to me and smoothing out the fabric as I am sewing. Looks like I'll be having a quilting partner soon!
Beautiful handmade quilts:
