A Baby Quilt

Some good friend of ours are adopting a baby soon.  We are so excited for them!  I designed a potential quilt, which may turn into a duvet cover, for them based on these pillows from IKEA (which I think are discontinued):

 





So here it is. I'm excited to get started on it. Of course when am I not excited to start a project?

What I Did Instead of Sleep


What do college and crafting having in common? All nighters. I finally got the motivation to stay up late and finish quilting Abby's quilt. It helps that we've been snowed in.  It's all quilted, now I just need to bind it. I'm going to do an invisible binding, so it will look essentially the same. I also realized that the size of the quilt is a little shorter than I was planning on, but at least it will make it easier for Abby to make her bed!
