I finished sweet William's quilt, but I did not get a picture of it before I gave it away. It works our even better, I will post a picture with him on it instead!
I wanted to make some organizational bags to go into my diaper bag. I am hoping that gives me motivation to keep things orderly. One bag is for clean clothes, one for dirty, one for snacks, and one for extras like lotion, baby wash, clippers stuff like that. I wanted the dirty clothes bag to have a mesh back, so if (when) I forget about yucky clothes for a day they might not be as bad.
I used an old pet net for my netting and Krista was over and helped me figure out how to make it with just one layer on the back. I could only figure out how to do it with two layers. Thanks Krista!
Here they are!
I also did some practice quilting on three leftover blocks from Jack's quilt. I really like how they turned out. I am going to stitch in the ditch on the colored fabric, and stipple quilt the white areas. It is a bit time consuming, but I think he is worth it.
Today I made a changing pad that holds a wipes container and diapers. I needed about a half yard of fabric for the front and the back each. I didn't have enough for the front, so I choose to piece all my scraps to make it. I pieced these 7 inch blocks on paper squares then trimmed the edges and ripped the paper off the back. I think the pattern turned out neat looking. It feels good to use up all those scraps too!
