Crafty/Sewing Weekend!

This weekend has been a good weekend for crafting and sewing. Last night my little sister came over and we had a good time sewing and cutting out fabric for projects. I did finish sewing a baby quilt- I can't post until after next weekend's baby shower, but I really liked the way it turned out.

Today I decided to work on some pillows that I had half completed. The picture below shows the two pillows I completed (the ones on the outside, the one in the middle I made several years ago). I don't think I am completely done yet because they don't quite match up.


This pillow was one that I had done a while ago- I quilted it using my machine and a stippling stencil. (Took this picture before I washed the stencil off!) I didn't think that I liked it as much- but then when I finished the second one without the quilting I think this one looks much nicer and it looked a lot better when it came out of the washer. Don't know what to do now.


I finished this one today- did the piecing on the front as well as finished the back. I like the way it turned out, but I am not sure if I want to quilt it to match the other. We'll see what my husband thinks when he gets home.


I also worked on some scrapbooking tonight and making a Valentines card for my sweetie. Lots of plans for crafting tomorrow too!

Happy stitching/crafting/quilting!
