Memory making

One of the reasons I began making baby items was that I received so many lovely baby items when my son was born that I wanted to give these types of gifts to others.  Handmade gifts are just so nice to give and receive.  They are made with love!  Corny, I know...

So I have made all my kids blankets, clothing, softies, toys, etc... I hope they cherish them years from now. 

I wanted to share one of my baby blankets...let's just say it qualifies as vintage now.  It is so beautiful and my mom can't seem to remember who made it for me.  But the detail is AMAZING.  It makes me want to try some needleturn applique and embroidery.  I just love it. 

Look at these amazing scalloped edges! 

It's a keeper!

Little hedgehog and a mushroom....

I love this little hedgehog and mushroom embroidery design.  Pine Mountain Designs was a booth I stopped by at Quilt Market and they had the cutest embroidery designs incorporated into quilts, pillows, wall hangings... they were adorable.  This pattern is called Little Things.  I loved this little hedgehog so much, I had to sew him up into my new pillow sample at Sew to Speak.
