Very productive week

I had a wonderfully productive week.  I had 2 more child/baby quilts to do and I managed to finish one of them.   A friend's son had a very simple baby quilt that was his emotional favorite.  It had seen a lot of wear and tear and laundering, but while it survived all of that it could not survive the dog.


This is what she handed me to use as a pattern to what was.



As you can see once opened up it did give me a good idea as to what I was aiming at.  She supplied the fabric and I fudged a quilt as close to the original as I could with the patten(ha) and the fabric supplied.



These were the best photos I could get of the work I did.  It really was a very simple process but it made for one very, very happy boy.


After that I was on to finishing up the request of my MIL for small gifts for her drivers. The ones I included in my posting of 3/25 were made with large pieces from my stash.




I really love these 2.  They were made with scraps. 



The black and white scraps were from the back of a quilt I made as a Christmas gift and the pastels are from an Easter project I am currently working on.


All in all a great week.  Hopefully this weekend I will get to the last of the baby quilts.  I have the blocks done.  They were made with the left overs from my swoon quilt.  Should be able to finish by next weekend, I hope.
