Old school desk finished

I have had this old desk on my porch for many years and I finally decided to refinish it and bring in inside.



All finished.



And Blaine approved too!

Floor cushion

I have another project completed that I forgot to blog about. I used this tutorial found on Living with punks website.



I am very happy with the way it turned out. The piping wasn't scary at all and really makes the cushion. I wish I could find more of this fabric.



If you look real close you can see the zipper I added so no hand sewing was used on this project, you got to love that! This should make it easy to wash if needed and we know that is probable going to be needed with a little boy around. I stuffed it with batting remnants that seem to multiply around my house.



One last picture of the handle.

Quilts for kids -6

Swim, Bike, Quilt


I know this is another Quiltmaker pattern but I couldn't locate the pattern. I will add it when I come across it.


He really isn't standing here he is leaning on the wall.


It looks like he is tap dancing here.


And here....






That's all for now, I hope the grand baby wasn't too distracting. You were looking at the quilt, right?

When you need to get some quilt pictures with a 8 month old in the house it is just as easy to include him than to distract him. And since I couldn't pick just one you get to see them all.
