This and That

It's a brand new year 

and I'm trying my best to really make a dent

in my pile of unfinished projects.

First up is the baby quilt that I started last year

for my sweet little Miss Daisy :)

She'll be a year old in May,

so I need to get this one done.

Since I showed you the thimble pads I use

 for embroidery and general stitching,

I thought I'd show you the only thimble that works for me

 when I'm hand quilting.

It's the Protect & Grip Thimble by Clover.

The metal end is perfect for pushing

 through layers of fabric and batting

and the rubbery part grips your finger nicely

and still allows you to "feel" your fabric.

I also wanted to show you Miss Evie

and her baby "Quinn" 

(she has changed her name several times)

with their matching jammies.

I found a few scraps of flannel and made a pair

of summer jammies for Maddie :)

She'll need them when we have sleep overs.....

I've been blessed with lots of orders in the shop

that are keeping me busy as well :)

I hope your year is off to a good start!!!
