Josiah's Horse Throw Quilt


While Donna and I were doing all our shopping at Joann's (love that store) I was getting material for baby projects (for all my expectant friends) and she was getting fleece to make knot quilts. I was struck by the thought that Josiah might like a throw quilt that I had made just for him as much or maybe even more than some of the other things I was thinking about giving him for his birthday (which is coming up in March). So I bought some fleece with horses printed on it. I could not bring myself to purchase orange fleece for the backing (orange is his current favorite color) so I did the next best thing -- I got bright red.

New Skirt for Abbi!




Mom bought the jeans for this skirt before Abbi's birthday in Dec. along with two others. I got the others converted into skirts, but I had to put this one away so that I could clean up for the birthday party. I am just now getting it back out. Donna came down last weekend and we went to Joann's because they had a President's Day sale where all their red-tagged cloth was sold half-off the marked price. I got the material for the middle at that sale along with a TON of other material and patterns ($1 each!) so now I have to get cracking to do some of the fabulous projects that I bought stuff for.
