You know when you get something in your head and you can't get it out?
You think about it nonstop and finally give in a do it?
Well...that's how it was with this project. I wanted to make a quilt.
I wanted one really bad!
So I scoured Pinterest searching for the perfect quilt.
I came across THIS one and knew it was PERFECT!
I cut and sewed and ironed and sewed some more till it was done.
Took forever, but totally worth it!
I am so happy with how it turned out:)
For the circles, I used wonder under on them and ironed it onto the white square.
Worked perfectly for me since I didn't have to pin the circle onto the white square...what a pain!!
For the back side, I used a light yellow and then made a strip on both sides of the quilt using all the fabrics.
A total of 19 different fabrics to be exact! I wish I could tell you what brand of fabric I used, but its all different. Some Michael Miller, Moda, etc. I went to a store in Fort Worth called Cabbage Rose and got everything there. It is a dream store for fabric lovers!
I had to leave you with this picture...this is how my little guy likes to dress. EVERY DAY!
The boots are a must. But I love it:) It just makes me laugh.
Stay tuned tomorrow because I have something pretty awesome for you!!! I mean AWESOME! So excited:)
I love the quilt. Owen loves the pic of Connor. He's going crazy, smiling and talking to it.
