I really should stop procrastinating….it makes for late nights and sleepy days! With two official baby showers in 8 days, I’ve been quite the busy baby quilter of late. Emily Somerville helped me make this strip quilt for Kelli’s shower this past Saturday! It has dozens of different scraps of fabric in it–and I bet you can’t tell which blocks first-time quilter Emily did and which ones were mine…

The rest of this week I’m going to try to make a new ball gown for the Regency Ball in Lansing this weekend. Last year’s gown was my first garment in years, and it was pretty obviously a maternity/nursing gown. I’m hoping to make a nice, normal one this year, but if things continue to go as they have with my practice dress this weekend, I’ll be wearing the old one.=( It’s my fault for waiting til the last minute (again) to try to get this together!
that looks so great! yeah!
