Ok. I need a sewing machine. I have saved 3 different blankets worth of stuff with this same exact idea. But I don't have a machine. And the one I learned on is an old table machine that I tried to take from my great-grandmother's house but found in ill-repair - nothing like how I remembered it from 30(ish) years ago. Sad. But now, I want a new one but am afraid I won't know how to use it!! I love this idea, Allison. LOVE IT. I cannot wait till Christmas! I really hope Santa hears my wish! :)
I am still waiting for a quilting fairy to come and help me with all the scraps I have waiting - so imperfect or not, at least you have started and made progress! I am really pleased to have come across your blog - especially the little sheep above, which look very fetching!
A shady spot to share stories about my little family, our life in New England, and the sweet, crazy, silly and sometimes difficult things that make it all so memorable.

Quilting?!?! Already?!?! You are awesome. :) I can't wait to see the finished product. Are those Ella's old outfits?
They are!!!!! Lotsa mistakes, but I ddn't want to pour a bunch of money into my first project. Repurpose, right?
