Some more crafts I have done


This doll quilt was also donate to the HCC office to use for Christmas gifts. Fabric was left over from a cushion set made for my rocking chair


A little something I made at a library activity

 

For Mother's day my oldest DD got me a ticket to Empty Bowl for lunch. We get to go and pick out a pottery bowl made and donated to this lunch. Several restaurants donated soups/breads etc. All funds raised from this meal goes to the food bank. My favourite was the sweet potato and coconut soup. This is the bowl I picked out.
 
 




A few items for DGD

Catching up on some sewing etc that I have done.



Got a picture of DGD wearing the knitted pullover I made for her birthday.



Below is a picture of her Easter dress. Still have to make a matching one for her doll. It's next on my sewing list.


HCC blankets


The HCC office mitten tree takes donations of yarn for knitters to make into mittens or hats. They received the following yarn


Two big balls of this yarn and I was asked to make something out of it for them so I made these


I turned each ball into doll blankets and sent them to the office. They do Christmas gifts for children  and by making the doll blankets they will be able to include them with a doll as a gift. Perfect use of the yarn if you ask me and the office seem to agree.

Fabric choices for baby quilt that I am having second thoughts on



 The above picture is of the backing and the picture below is of the border/binding
