Puffy Baby Quilt

I found this tutorial on how to make a puffy baby quilt on the Honeybear Lane blog and I knew I had to at least attempt this project. It looked like tons of fun and I figured it would make an excellent present for the baby in miss Amy's belly. So I headed to the fabric store and immediately bought some purple, yellow, and brown fabrics to make the pieces to the quilt. Luckily, I found out the next day that Amy was having a girl, phew! If you want to make a puffy quilt for yourself or someone special the tutorial can be found at these links: Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4. Here are my puffs pre-assembly:


And here are some finished product pictures:




I know baby Evan already likes his sister's blanket, so hopefully she will love it as well! Guess we'll find out December-ish?

Mod Vintage Lavender booties

I've been cruising ModCloth a lot lately in search of dresses for various happenings and I think all the modern/ vintage styles are seeping into my brain because I made these super cute mod vintage lavender booties the other day:

They are made from a cotton fabric with a geometric print and spiced up with a little lace and bobble detailing. They're now available on my Etsy store (yes I still have one I've just been neglecting it lately). Let me know what you think!
