TQS/AAQI Challenge 2012

[Aileen47]

I am getting more confident with the embellishing. It has been years since I have sewn dresses for the girls and added that girly touch. I now look at the crazy clearance findings and bobbles differently when I am shopping. After Christmas clearance will be a blast this year.

I noticed the forum has been very quite. I guess we are all working on those last minute gifts. I mailed mine out to my daughters last week and they love them...
if you want to see what I made them go to my blog

Wishing everyone an Wonderful and Blessed Merry Christmas.

Great trees. I'll have to make some for next year... Fab idea. And perfect for aaqi sales in Houston I would imagine, as people can buy them as early Xmas prezzies...

Thanks for the link Aileen - they are adorable. Happy Christmas.

What lovely trees! Your daughters should be very pleased. Merry Christmas!

What great gifts for your daughters, Aileen--all very pretty and I was particularly taken by the stocking, really fun and different! I'd never seen your blog so I scrolled through it all--it looks like you have a great time with all the projects you take on! Happy holidays to you too!

Thank you Ladies. Quilting keeps me sane.

Next few months I will be working on flannel burp rags (is there a better name for these), baby blankets, receiving blankets for Grandbaby #3 due in March.
Of course some more AAQI quilts.

Happy Holidays to ALL

I called them by their old english name of 'posset cloths'. But just bought myself a pack of a dozen cloth nappies to use (after advice from my big sister, who had her kids well before me)

Thank you for the new name "Posset Cloths". Sounds so much better. I sewed flannel onto one side. I had washed the diapers before sewing. They look pretty but warped a bit. I am not going to worry about it. DD#2 tends to wash everything on hot and bleach the daylights out of them. She wanted me to dye the nappies but I was afraid the baby may have a reaction or they would look so faded from the repeated bleaching that is coming there way.

I've got 4 quilts prepped and ready for the road trip this holiday season.
