Sewing Project #3 - pillowcase

In preparation for my next project, Tami suggested I make a pillowcase...without a pattern.  I managed to figure it out mostly on my own (which was the point of the exercise).  I chose this adorable fabric for Luz because she sings "Twinkle, twinkle little star," every night as she is putting herself to sleep.  I have plans to make a coordinating one in blue. 

Sewing Project #2 - nursing cover

Tami suggested I sew a nursing cover...you know, a nice, rectangular thing with straight lines.  I loved making this project, although had a glitch with my machine right at the beginning.  Luckily, she let me use her machine, but my lines are definitely not straight.  Here it is folks, that is 2 yards of fabric!  I am really hoping not to flash anyone this time around.  We'll see...

I liked this one so much I decided to make another.  Obviously in love with polka dots. :)

Sewing Project #1 - double sided flannel blankets

Recently, Tami offered to teach me how to sew.  I have done a few things here and there over the years, but I felt like I could branch out more with some supervision.  So, I guess, she offered to supervise my sewing and offer some of her expertise when needed.  The first thing I wanted to do is sew double-sided flannel blankets.  I made them for a friend who had a preemie baby boy.  I think they turned out really cute, although that has more to do with the fabric than the actual sewing. :)  [Ok, now that I've posted the pics, I realize that the lighting was really bad when I took them.  Sorry about that!]
