Andrew's stocking and Turkey placemat

Since my daughter and son-in-law decided that they needed a fourth child I had to get busy and make a stocking and a Thanksgiving turkey placemat since the other 3 kiddos already had them. So..here they are!

 

Glad to have them finished. I'm going to make 2 more turkey placemats because the othe 3 are all the same and this one is a little different. That way no one will be odd man out! Also need to make Santa placemats since the other 3 have those also

Quilt #102

Helen needed another quilt for her boss's daughter - the older daughter this time having her first child - a boy. Baseball was the theme. Having made a quilt for Matthew (#44) that was a baseball attic window quilt, that is what I decided to go with. The baseball fabric I used for that quilt is no longer available, so I started hunting on line! Found some teddy bears playing baseball that would be perfect. And since this child's name is Theodore, whom they will call Teddy, it turned out to be better than perfect!

Since I put initials on the back of his cousins' quilts, I had to do the same thing with this one.

I'm still not good at my free motion quilting on my Sweet 16, guess I don't practice enough! Hopefully I will get better sometime!
