I have been busy...

...with sewing of course! First up making some more thank you gift for the carers at my son's child care.   After some searching I found this simple and easy tote bag tutorial and I decided to give it a try. For someone who doesn't have much sewing experience this tutorial helps with lots of pictures and good instructions. It's so easy and quick I made not one but six tote bags!









I also made another baby quilt for a friend's son who is turning One tomorrow (Yay! He's such a cute boy!). My little man is very excited to be invited as he knows he's going to get some yummy treats and have fun time playing with other children.

I have been wanting to try out the Pinwheel Baby Quilt from Moda Bake Shop for some time so this is the perfect occasion for it. I use Moda's Apple Jack and it turned out really well.    


For the white border, I quilted the music notes from "Happy Birthday" song with the help of Mark-b-gone pen --- making sure that I have copied it down correctly!


Then bind it and gave it a good wash....


Then sew another simple tote bag and now it's ready to gift!
