Strawberry Onesie and Skirt

I’m making baby gifts for a couple of baby showers coming up. And I got a little sidetracked…

I bought this cute red-with-small-dots fabric from a cute fabric store in Port Aransas, Texas. When the store had just opened up, Grandma Niki and Grandma Pudge went to investigate and saw a stained glass quilt that was one of their favorites. When we came down for a visit, I went to see it for myself. They have patterns to make the quilts they have on display, and this one seems so easy once you break it down. I did not attempt to imagine myself making it, however, knowing all too well that I would just put it at the top of my ever-growing project pile. I didn’t want to disappoint the owner who was showing me around, so I bought a half a yard of this red fabric and another half of a colorful fishy one. They’ve been waiting for me to create something with them. And I finally got around to it, so had to post it.

Now I’m off to work on the baby gifts. No, really, I am.

EDIT: Here’s Zoe the morning after I made this. She was happy to receive the new threads.

    BTW – glad to hear you’re trying the Homeschooling thing out! The more homeschooling mommies there are the better! At least homeschooling mommies that do it right – I’ve met a couple families that do in NOT a good way. There are always the weird ones. But not us, hugh! We’re the cool ones!
