This is what has been keeping me quiet

 (I'm sorry, I don't know how to rotate this with blogger, eep)

I made my first (of 3) keepsake quilts for my boys. I used the" Stash Buster Quilt Pattern"  and built on it to make it single bed size.
I tried to fussy cut a block with Cams (boy#2) "going home"  outfit. I fumbled along, it was an epic pain in the rear.
I'll applique the other 2 outfits I think?

There are a few stuff ups, but hopefully I don't make those again with the other 2.

 Hopefully he will keep this forever and at least pretend to love it. When I visit him in his own home I hope he pulls it out of the cupboard and places it somewhere, as if he has been using it.
I kept the spew stains as he was a super spewer. No one would hold him (up to the age of about 1). If I asked anyone to nurse him for a bit, they would give me a look of horror and either run off screaming or suddenly need to pick up the dog poo or wash the cat.

  1. Looks great!! I love the idea of using the going home outfit on the back!!! My MIL is making the boys' quilts right now and has asked for a picture of them for the back, but I think I might give her their going home outfits instead!
