Here's my very first quilt, finally finished, after 4 years! I decided when Adam was a baby to make him a quilt that he could lay on/play on while we were at church. I got the top done relatively easily and then realized I completely lacked the skills to go any further. Then I somewhat figured out how to do the hand quilting (which I'll never do again) and then again realized I had no idea how to do binding. The quilt would sit untouched for 6 mos. increments until I could figure out the next step. In the midst of all this frustration, my husband commented about how the quilt was kind of girly, so the quilt was exiled for a long while as my son started nursery and no longer needed a play blanket. The quilt resurfaced as I was digging out all the stuff from our office/craft room and turning it into a somewhat useable nursery. I realized all I needed to do was the binding, and I now know how to do that from other quilts I've finished. I finished this off fairly easily and now little miss Hadley will have a play blanket. Which is good because it is kind of girly. (Sorry for the crooked picture, I cannot figure out how to take a good photo of quilts)

Here's a quilt I made for Hadley.
Here's the shopping cart cover. It has a green fabric on the reverse side. I still have to add the safety straps but, I have no idea how to use the button hole feature on my sewing machine. I'm sure it's completely simple but, I've never done it before. I will never make one of these again. Way too much cost & work!
