Sweet Gift for a Sweet Girl

Inspired by my DD's love of her stuffed bunny and the mini quilt that I made for her to tuck him in I decided to make something similar in preparation for a sweet little girl's upcoming first birthday. Using a charm pack and some fat quarters from the Bunny Hill fabric line by Moda I pieced together this little fat quarter sized quilt and bound it with some chocolate fabric. The floppy-eared chocolate coloured bunny is soooo soft and the pink velvet nose is just the adorable icing on top. I hope she enjoys it!

Here are some photos of the completed project:

And a close up detail shot of the backing fabric - look, there are bunnies!

Eric Carle Room

After falling in love with Andover Fabric's Eric Carle line and the adorable quilt kits from Fat Quarter Shop I've been busy sewing up a storm to decorate the kidlets room in an Eric Carle theme.

First I bought the Brown Bear, Brown Bear quilt kit. This quilt will be for my DS for his upcoming 2nd birthday:

I've also completed some new curtains complete with a blackout liner using some yardage from the Very Series fabric line. I love the stripes! Close up they have that painted look that the illustrations in Eric Carle's books have.

And now I've been working on a Very Hungry Caterpillar quilt for my DD for her birthday (which isn't until December, but I wanted to get the kit while it was available). I'm done piecing the top and have sandwiched it and pinned it and now I just need to do the quilting and binding (which will be red). I flipped over the corner so you could have a sneak peek of the adorable backing fabric. DD has requested that I make her a blanket (or "blanklet" as she says) and really wanted this one so I just couldn't resist! :)
