Twinkle Twinkle Little Star....

We've gave my sister a baby shower last weekend. She got lots of fun stuff...I don't think she'll have to buy anything. She's having a little girl, Murphy. I wanted to do something special for he so I made her a baby quilt. It was my first one ever. Quilting is definitely my new hobby. It was so much fun. Check out the pics.

The finished quilt!

My favorite quilt animal. Casey drew this one for me. Then I traced, cut, and appliqued the pieces down. Then I embroidered the edges on the machine and hand embroidered the eyes and mouth. Isn't he cute??

A lot of my pictures were blurry, so this the only good one of her opening the quilt. There were tears involved when she realized I made it. It was very sweet.

And on another note...one of my best friends from high school got married on Saturday. I was a bridesmaid, but was not very good at taking pictures. I didn't even get one of us together! Her name's Jennifer. She looked absolutely beautiful! Congrats Mrs. Dooley!
