A pillowcase dress!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well. The other day I made this little pillow case dress for my daughter. She uses it as a nighty. It's made out of two pillow cases that my mom had bought at a yard sale. They were like new and had a cute orange lace on the edge. I decided to use both pillowcases in order to keep it from being see through. I used some orange and purple fabric to make the ties. I got the fabric from the SewMamaSew fat quarter swap. I think it is really cute. She loves it. She likes to lounge around with it on. It's a decent length and really comfy and soft. I may make her a couple more nighty's like this. She really seems to like it.

Happy Stitching!

Completed blocks for the Girls block swap!!!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well. I wanted to show you the blocks that I made for the block swap I'm doing with my Mom and sisters. We are having a get together next weekend to swap our blocks. We made 30 blocks each. We get to keep 6 of our own blocks and we will get 6 blocks from the other 3 girls and my Mom. So, we will all end up with 30 blocks to make our own quilt and it will have been pieced by all of us. We will all have a nice keepsake. I'm really excited for the weekend. I'm bringing my daughter with me. It's my first time travelling so far without my husband. It's going to be a nine hour drive. But I'm looking forward to it. Here are my blocks. Well, I have to go. I hope you all have a great day!! Ariane :o)

My sister's house blocks!!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all well. I visited my sister the other day and she was working on a wall hanging quilt. She is making it with house blocks that she has made. These are being made with her scraps. They are really great. I love them. I happen to have my camera with me so I took a few pictures and she gave me permission to share them with you. I hope you like them. Have a great day!!

A cupcake handbag for my daughter

Hi everyone, I finally decided what I was going to use the cupcake fat quarter I received from Jennifer. She was one of my swap partners for the SewMamaSew fat quarter swap. I just loved it and wanted to make something for my daughter with it. I finally decided to make her a bag that she care wear over her shoulder. I really like the way it turned out. It's so cute and perfect for a nine year old girl. She will be able to put her Nintendo DS and the books she likes to read. She always has a book with her wherever we go. I hope you like it.

Happy Stitching!
