Quilt squares, burp cloths, and a *NEW* foot :-)

One of my latest little crafting projects have been these cute little burp cloths that I made from this tutorial. They are supper easy and turn out really cute :-) I actually used a pack of flannel receiving blankets that I got as a baby gift when my son was born that were un-opened for the fabric.
I just LOVE the soft fuzzy edges
And, these are the quilt squares I have been working on. I can't wait to put this quilt together!! I am still trying to figure out exactly how I want to lay it out...
It is the Moda Arcadia fabric. I really like the patterns and colors. I used the "disappearing 9" method to make the squares. I love how easy it is to get a pretty neat looking block.
OH!! I can't forget this!! My new darning foot!! Now I can try my hand at machine stippling!! I am SO excited!!
Here is one of my practice swatches... It is really fun!!

Pretty Pink Quilt

So, I finished the little baby quilt (thanks mom for your help)!! It is so cute... now just to find a sweet little one to give it to. Maybe my next baby will be a girl. Then I will be ahead of the game for once :o).
Here is my work in progress
All finished
Ready for squishy baby feet!
I could just eat them up!!

LOOK WHAT I FOUND!!!

Yep, that is right, a half finished quilt top!! I started this probably 5 years ago and found it in one of my craft bins while looking for something else. It made me happy ;o)!! I now have a perfect little project to work on this afternoon while to boys are napping. I will let you know how it turns out.
