My mom made me a skirt out of it, which is shown somewhere on this blog....I believe in this baby's pregnancy announcement. And it'll show up more in the future too I'm sure! And yes, quilting with littles is hard. I find I'm most successful when I do it in an assembly line fashion. So first I'll work on cutting (maybe at night after they're in bed). Even a half hour of cutting at the table chit chatting with them while they eat lunch, makes headway. Then I sew in small segments here and there. You get the idea. Towards the end though, a few good nights are needed to be set aside for the big steps such as pinning and sewing rows, and then the top quilting. Binding was done in bed in stages as well. So don't give up, just don't give yourself a time line.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609156261526292680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-510556198239054269.post-74991963517836226412012-08-30T12:18:03.059-07:002012-08-30T12:18:03.059-07:00I LOVE the dress!!!!

I'm hoping to make the boys quilts, but finding time seems to be difficult with three little ones.

Those boots were a gift from Grammy and pairing them with the dress is classic Lissy style, which I love. :)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12609156261526292680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-510556198239054269.post-19481284257954530502012-08-28T14:32:58.048-07:002012-08-28T14:32:58.048-07:00Oh Grammy, Dad and friend make my eyes tear up.
