More Past Projects

I found the rest of my pictures!  Some of them were on my phone and some on my camera that hasn't been downloaded in months.  So here's the rest of what I have pictures of....

The Alabama Santa Claus....I knew I had a picture somewhere!  I must not have had my camera handy and used my phone instead.  It's hard to make it look collegiate when Bama's colors are red and white...so he just looks more like a Christmas Santa Claus....but trust me, the intention was Bama.


This next one is the first baby blanket I successfully completed and it stayed together after washing!  I tried another one, but it didn't work very well and fell apart, so I made this one instead.  This was completed around February 2011 for my friend Charlene, whose little girl Brynn was born the end of March.  It's white sparkly yarn for the main part, and a mint green for the trim to match the car seat/stroller they bought.  The flower colors are purple and white for K-State.



My first Santa Claus I made....a VT Santa as a tree topper for my Christmas Tree.  I love the orange fabric on this one, and I completed it sometime in the fall of 2009 because I had it on my tree while Chris was deployed that year. 



It was the same year I made my Mom and her husband Daniel a Coca Cola Santa Claus, however I did not take any pictures of it for some reason.  The next year, 2010, I had enough Coca Cola fabric leftover to make them a Mrs Claus for Christmas, and I did take a picture of her.  All the same materials as the Santa were used, so I'm sure they look really cute together!


And the last one for this entry is a VT baby quilt I made for our friends Sam and Becky who are expecting their first child the end of this month.  They've chosen to wait to find out the gender until the baby is born, and since they both went to VT, I thought this was the perfect gender-neutral gift.  They have already recieved it so I can post it now.  I completed it at the end of October 2011, and as my very first quilting attempt, I think it turned out pretty well.






I think this concludes all the past projects I have pictures of.  When I started all this, I didn't think I'd make that many so I guess I didn't think I'd need pictures.  I've been taking them ever since, and once a project has been completed and given to the intended person, I will post it here for you to see. 

Happy creating!
