I came home and bought some outfits from Dharma and got out my soy wax and started playing around. The thing I had to remember is how many times you have to wash this stuff to get the dye out with a baby wearing it. I don't pay that much attention with my fiber art, but I don't want bleeding on all the other baby clothes
Of course I had to make her a baby quilt, which reminded me how far removed I am from exact seams and pointed edges. This pattern was from a Freddy Moran book. I was able to use up a lot of my store bought fabric. They had one for Farmer John too, so I'm ready if a baby boy comes along in the future.

What a cute quilt. I need to make one by Thanksgiving. I am going abstract, though. The mom is an architect and the dad is a theater guy.
What fun!
I'm planning a new quilt for little GD too. And also a handbag, as she likes mine so much. ;-)
My grandson will get a quilt for his first birthday, so I have time to figure it out! How did our babies manage to thrive without all the fancy stuff they have now? I laughed at the "wipe warmer" my daughter got as a gift, but we have both decided we like it! You are right. It is a whole new world. Looks like you are having a lot of fun!
Love that quilt! You are putting me to shame with all that you are doing for your grandbaby! I need to get on the stick! I think perhaps Terry has the right idea about waiting till the baby's first b'day, since I don't know the sex....that's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Saw your beautiful art quilt photo in the latest QA: great job! Way to go kiddo!!!
Have a great shower!
