ballet dress for a little girl
we have a birthday party today, for a 3yo girl… like most, she likes pink and ballet, so when I saw this ballet shoe fabric at my Bernina dealer, I snapped up a yard, and made this last night…I don’t have a pattern, but I used the peasant top tutorial from indietutes as a jumping […]

I knew I wanted to do something for the Bean, as she’s really really loving pink and dresses/skirts, but it’s not overly […]
quilt blocks…
Modify Tradition’s Martha Washington StarMT Love in the Mist (I struggled with this one, mostly because I didn’t have enough of the red bits, and had to fake the block with small piecesand a Map of the States block for Bee Lovely
Progress report
