Vintage Baby Clothes


My cousin's son is in his 30s? now, and this quilt contains pieces from newborn to adult.  
 Here are all of the pieces on the floor.  Ready for graphing.    There are little baby Christmas outfits, jerseys, signed and painted T-shirts, boy scout vest, soft toys, booties, and bonnet.  
 Here is the quilt top pieced.   Since I couldn't adequately baste the quilt with the 3D elements, I added those later after the quilting.   
 Finished quilt with extra elements quilted/tacked down.   


 The back is a grey chevron.

Happy Birthday to me ;c)




It's mah birthday!
And what will I be doing today?!
I've been working on a T-shirt quilt for a customer. These quilts are made up of some GORGEOUS t-shirts . . so the quilts will be awesome.


The blank areas of the quilt I filled in with some fancy quilting. There were two plain white areas I added to this quilt. In one area I appliqued "2012" with raw-edge applique. In the other I free-motion embroidered the girl's name "Molly" with a wide, zig-zag stitch.

The school colors are Burgundy and White. I'm using burgundy as the backing fabric and right now I am planning on binding in black. Just because I think black will look much better than white. ;c)
