A few birthday crafts

My nieces birthday was last month and her brother's birthday was yesterday so I had a lot of fun in September making gifts for them.

For my Nephew's gift I made a car roll, like the one I made Joshua last year at Christmas time. I had fun with the D on the front and making it match the John Deer fabric on the front of the roll up.







For my Niece's gift I made a little dolly quilt. This is my first quilt that I quilted myself and made the binding myself. I enjoyed it so much I made a quilt for Will as well! I love the green and pink and the cupcake!

Christmas...

Is it too early to start thinking about Christmas?? I am loving the summer and fun that comes with it, but with hardly any time in my days to sew I need to get a head start. I thought for Christmas this year I would make everyone's Christmas gifts. Or most of them any way. This is what I thought I would make my boys. Yesterday I picked up a HUGE bag of multicolored felt from a local freecycler (yahoo group that I can go on to get free things around town that people don't want any more). I have already cut out the pieces for the felt watermelon and cucumber. I also want to make sandwich makings, cookies, other fruits, pizza, and a 'paper bag' to go with it. I think he will love it. Will should be able to benefit from this toy later on in life too. :) Let me know what you think. Click on the words below to visit the link.
