Just a few things I have been working on...

I think the little blankets are my favourite thing to make. They come to life intuitively, without much planning and I usually like what I see in the end. I really, really would like to get my hands on some Anna Maria Horner prints to make similar stroller blankets. She also has wonderful free quilt patterns on her blog http://annamariahorner.blogspot.com

Curtain from Wallinger Avenue

We once bought a house with contents and all. The former owner had inherited the house from his parents and found no need for shag carpet, orange sofa and chair, 4 lamps from 60s and oodles of ornaments. Actually, everything left in the house was from the 60s or earlier. It was a literal time warp. We had a pretty big garage sale and got rid of many items but I hung on to a nice pair of curtains that didn't go with our decor but I loved the print. I finally found a use for one panel as backing for a crib blanket.

Car Seat/Stroller Blanket

What to do with the scraps...

What better use for all those tiny scraps than baby blankets! I usually don't have too many left after making the clothes but just enough to make cozy stroller blankets, perfect for the carseat or stroller.
