I have sewn all the vertical rows with back-stitching at every starting and ending points. I think I'll never forget to back-stitch again. Hoping to finish this top in the next week so that I can finish other ufos soon.

Onesie Skirt update and charity Bibs

Last week I made this onesie skirt and was so excited and impatient to try it on my baby, I didn't even write a thing to the post just published the pictures. When I tried it on my baby it would only go through her head and one arm oops!

 I've fixed it by adding a coordinating fabric (didn't have enough of the main fabric) satin stitched a few flowers and most importantly added elastic (doh) to stretch the skirt. Now it fits over her head and arms, yaay. So here is the Re-refashioned onesie.

At Creative Saturday a bunch of us made a total of 18 cute bibs for charity. These bibs are for an orphanage in China for the babies who were rejected because of deformity.

These four were my contributions.

After coming home I couldn't help but make one for my baby and she approved its cuteness by chewing it right away.

First quilt(2014) for Ronald McDonald House

Disappearing 9 patch quilt

This is my first disappearing nine patch quilt I learned to make at the Ronald McDonald House quilting group. The lovely ladies in the group are so talented and generous. I learned almost all my quilting basics from them. I am very grateful to be part of this group. 

The quilting I did for the main body actually accentuates the fishes in the fabric, totally unplanned but pleased with the results.

Squiggly line quilting at the border.

Cute quilting for the small corner space.
