I have the batting and backing out and ready, just need to get that last hooray.
Next, I made an in-carseat baby swaddler thing based on a tutorial from Pinterest. Incidentally, Pinterest may have a lot to do with why my quilt isn't finished. Oops.
The fabric is a Henry Glass print that I got at a sidewalk sale at my LQS a couple years ago. The inside is just white flannel. I opted to forgo the batting, thought it might get a bit toasty.
It's not very easy to take a picture of and look like anything other than a bunch of fabric. I still need to cut holes to fit it into the carseat, but I am having second thoughts about the carseat that I bought and thinking maybe I want a different one. I can't get it to sit securely in the vehicle.
Last, but not least, I will be making a carseat canopy like this one here. This is in the extreme preliminary stages...as in I haven't actually unfolded the fabric yet.
This is from Joel Dewberry's Heirloom line in the Sapphire colour way. I love this print! The other side will be a grey minky fabric that I got.
Well, that post was excessively long but after this baby comes, who knows when I'll be on next! I am linking up to WIP Wednesday with Lee at Freshly Pieced.
I really love that first quilt top - The colors are so cute! Can't wait to see it finished.
