Morgan's Quilt - My First Quilt!

One day I decided I wanted to make a quilt using the whole blocks in this quilt, so I cut them into blocks and went from there.  I found the scrappy block look online and figured out what size each piece needed to be and then found fabrics we already had and made each block how I wanted it to look.

The front

 The back

I saw these letter blocks and decided to recreate my own for the back of this quilt to make it more fun:)

 I ended up doing a scrappy binding, piecing them together as a rainbow.

Although it's definitely not perfect, being my first quilt and all, I still think it turned out pretty cute!

Pajama Pant Christmas Gifts

An overly belated post!!  But I have decided I would like to start blogging regularly again . . we'll see how that goes!

I made these pajama pants for the kids for Christmas gifts.  Of course, for some reason, I had to wait until the last possible day to make them . . .but nevertheless, they were completed on time!

The girls got ruffles on the bottom of their pj pants:)

♥ Awww . . . what cuties! ♥ 

I didn't get an individual picture of Bronwyn with her fox print pants, but here are the rest of the kids.

Hunter had a license plate print on his pants.  When he opened his gift, he was jumping around and laughing and acting all weird . . . he never would tell us what was so funny about his pajama pants!!

Joe . . .oh a-hem, excuse me, I mean Walker! got a trucks and cars print.  I happened to have this t-shirt, so I made him a shirt to go with his pants:)

Morgan . . . I think this flower print is adorable!

Well, hope you all have a wonderful day!  I've been working on completing a couple quilts and am ready to pin them together and quilt them . . .eeek . . we'll see how that goes!!  Anyways, hope I'll be back posting more soon!

Morgan-y Expressions

 Oh yes . . . Morgan-y expressions . . . Her being her silly self on the way up to pick huckleberries in August:)

Just don't mind the dirty face:)

I guess we know she was happy, anyways!!

And how 'bout we end here with a gorgeous sunset picture from up in the mountains.  (The spots?  It was raining a bit!)

 

Felt the urge to blog again:)  Hopefully I'll start blogging more!  Although it HAS been busy lately:) Hope y'all have a lovely day!

Morgan Elaine & a Cute Lil' Ruffle Dress

So now it's the beginning of a new school year . . . at the end of last school year, I made this dress.  It was sitting there for a long time waiting for the last ruffle to get on it.  I finally got that done in August some time I think, but then I never got pictures done so I could blog about it.  At the end of August, I wanted to take pictures of Morgan at the neighbors house because she has so many lovely spots for taking photo's and I ended up having her wear this dress . . . and I am in LOVE with these photo's - they're all so darling!

One of my very favorite photo's - totally in LOVE!!

My neighbor picked some flower's for Morgan and let her have them . . .

She didn't like her spot here and was crawling down:)

She was getting crabby by this point, but here she was okay because she was just sitting there staring at the dog!

Lookin'at/smelling the pretty flower.

Sittin' in a cute lil' chair:)

Yeah, she was staring at the dog again!

A good shot of the dress:)

And another one I love . . . I like the backdrop with the cute old bench and her eyes again!!

This dress was made with the same base as this dress I made for Bronwyn, but then I added all the ruffles.

A Morning Walk

 The other day Tara and I decided to go on a walk.  We had to watch the kids so we decided to bring Morgan with us in the stroller.  It was a beautiful morning and the temperature was wonderful for a walk!

And another one.

Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Confirmation Classes: August 4 ~ Part 1

There are several different posts I'm going to have to do for this day, since my family came up for my birthday, and I was taking tons of photos, even if some of them were self timer and tripod ones, I'm the one who got them organized:)

Tara and me

Apparently how I had the tripod, it was crooked . . .

Tara really liked this picture for some reason . . .
