Operation Vacation

Since three of my five children have been in school, I've been playing around with my sewing machine. I've taken a little time to rest before jumping into intensive language study and preschool with my two other children. This is what I ended up with.

It's made of quilt squares, an old blanket and a sheet. All of which were given to me from fellow missionary Kathy Hart in Mozambique. To be thrown together over the weekend, I thought it turned out fairly well.

This sweet thing is asleep in my bed right now.

And this pretty thing is sitting in one of my windows. I have no idea what it's called.

Quilting 101

Look at what my sweet girls made!! They all used the sewing machine by themselves, with me sitting next to them. Brooklyn was a little spazy like normal...Faith got bored..Liberty had no fear of the machine at all and went full force..it's amazing how different sisters this close in age can be. Trinity just sat and watched and told me to make one for her, thank goodness!

They plan to finish with hand quilting and use these as doll blankets. Didn't they do a great job?
