Saturday my mother-in-law and I had a shower for my sister-in-law. She's having a baby girl at the end of January, but with the holidays we decided to have her shower a little early.
I made some burp cloths . I love these kind made out of cloth diapers. They are so absorbent. I made some bibs at the last minute too, but for whatever reason the picture will not upload.
The other thing I made for her was this kitten quilt. The pattern is from American Quilting in Orem. I love how it turned out. I think I need to make one for my baby girl!
Here is a close up of the cats. I embroidered the faces and then appliqued them using a running stitch and black floss.

Very cute! I just love making baby quilts and gifts, they are usually quick and sweet. I am sure that she loved everything.
What lovely presents for your sister. I'm sure she will love the burp cloths and especially the darling cat quilt. A lot of work went into that, and I'm sure she will the quilt will become a family treasure.
adorable! i love the kitties. what a wonderful gift!
That's quite the quilt to make and give away! Aren't you glad you started quilting? You're so great at it.
That looks amazing! I love it so much! I have been thinking I should attempt another project again some time soon. I really really love this.
So so cute. I'm trying to make a baby quilt on the fly for a family shower on Saturday. Why do people only give you 1 week with invitations?
What a darling quilt! I'll have to show my quilter-in-training aka as my daughter who LOVES cats when she gets home from school!
Great thoughts you got there, believe I may possibly try just some of it throughout my daily life.
