2011 - The Year in Sewing Projects

 Grace's vintage pillowcase dress. 

 I always love making pretty pillow cases.  I sent these to the director of the kids' preschool while she was battling breast cancer.  

I loved making this bunny for baby Max.  Max liked it, too.  This year I simply have to make more bunnies. 

Ellie starred in her school play as the farmer's wife.  You simply can't be a good farmer's wife without a custom apron.  Love Alexander Henry's  Farmdale line. 

More pillowcases. This time with Moda's 1974 line, which, I'm pretty sure was made for me : )  I stashed away lots of 1974 (with Lisa's help) and am planning an Erica quilt soon... 

Stephanie's quilt was a collaborative effort with Lisa.

Back to school headbands for Grace.

And, apple baskets for the kids' teachers. 

While the Farmer's Wife quilt is still far from finished, I did complete six squares. Looking forward to getting back to this one in 2012.

Susan's horsie quilt.  I found a bolt of the red toile (above) in Georgetown, it was all I could do to not buy the entire thing and hoard it away. 

Wreaths.  Technically not a sewing project, but I love making them so much that 2012 is guaranteed to be a big wreath year. 

The angel throw.

Carter's Rudolph Christmas Throw.  He did not use it one time because he decided that the abominable snow man was just too scary for bedtime.  Maybe next year. 

Finally, the wedding quilt.  Love, love, love. 

Looking back through all of my pictures from 2011, I was surprised at how many projects I'd finished.  It was a good sewing year.
