Natalia and her Quilt-in-a-Day

My baby quilt has found a happy home, yay!

Putting the binding onto Crocheting Madness

The finishing touches are coming on: the binding was the lone fat quarter I bought at Material Girl Quilt Shop in Traverse City, one of the shops recommended to me by you, my readers.

Another thing I'd like to win:

Famous last words: I don't have time for this

which is exactly what Amanda Jean of Crazy Mom quilts said when she presented the first glimpse of a new Christmas Quilt. Based on Candy Bar Road, it uses charm packs and jelly rolls. And might just be the ticket for my Dandelion Girl loot this summer.

Edited to add: it's done, go have a look at it here.

Another idea for baby gifts ... thanks, Miss Film-in-the-Fridge"!

All Christmassy, all the time ...

Moda Fat Layer Charms

I'm itching to spend money despite my drive for down-sizing ... I think Christmas is leading me into temptation and I am collecting links again:
