I have just about burned myself out on sewing, but I finished a couple more projects this weekend. And one more that is top secret because it is a gift for someone, but SOOOOO cute -- I can't wait to show you! Here are the ones I did finish...
Our pretty firewood carrier (Darryl would like me clarify that, in the above picture, the pretty carrier is being held by my very handsome firewood carrier -- just so there's no confusion)! I made it out of really durable indoor/outdoor fabric with dowel handles following the directions found here:
http://sew4home.com/projects/storage-solutions/741-noel-home-sturdy-stylin-firewood-carrier. It's a fast and easy project that turned out great!
The other project was a silly, but very necessary one. Miss Madeline has told me on numerous occasions that she was sad she didn't have a minky baby blanket like I've made for many babies (Logan, Rosie, Quinn...) and so.... drumroll, please..... Maddy's baby blanket (2 weeks before her 8th birthday!)
It even has her name on it (which I did to compensate for my boneheaded cutting mistake that lead to the one block of 9-patch. Oops.)
Hope you had a good weekend!

Ha! Glad you clarified that Darryl isn't pretty but handsome!!! I left you a message today saying that I hope you resolved your cutting mistake but it looks like you did! And, here, I thought it was part of the design and I was thinking how creative you were to make one block of smaller blocks!! You know, mistakes are not really mistakes. They are creative thinking outside of the box (or block)!!! XOXO
