Well I am making slow but steady progress on the quilt. I have basically just continued to snip and stitch squares together. I have no idea how big this quilt it going to be.... we'll have to see on that one. In addition to working on the quilt I have been collecting sewing materials from various stores to built up my supply..fun fabrics, in different textures and patterns, ribbons, buttons, etc. I have made a couple pillows for Ella, and have been recently trying my hand at various types of burp cloths and taggie type blankets. I'm am also going to attempt some baby blocks I saw online (that could be interesting). Since I'm not expecting a baby, I have been mainly making things in girl type patterns (I figure Ella can use them for her dolls?) I want to start doing some boy stuff as well, but let's face it, it's harder to find cute boy fabrics! Maybe if I get good enough at these they can be gifts for one of my MANY expecting friends. At work they're are at least 4 pregnant women! Eventually we'll have another and maybe I can make some stuff for baby #2. Until then I'm going to just keep playing around and looking for small projects to tackle.
