Oaks with Acorns

This is a quilt that I actually finished the day before Thanksgiving.  Then I hung it on the wall for that day and a week or so afterwards. I like Hawaiian  quilts and I wanted to do a fall quilt in the same manner.  

I couldn't fold and cut on this one as all the leaves are twirling in the same direction.  So it took a little more work to get it straight.  I copied the design from a drawing I had pinned on Pinterest.

This is all hand appliqued but then machine quilted.

Little Toys

This is a whole slew of toys that I have knitted and crocheted over the last few months.  

 The first two are prizes that I sent to new great nieces of mine.  They are from Little Cotton Rabbits, a favorite site that I buy patterns from.

A granddaughter wanted a purple angel.  So I made it for her.

Here she is.

Another little cotton rabbit fox.

This is a Jean Greenhowe pattern.  It's called a topsy-turvey doll.  This is for my oldest granddaughter.  My grandchildren love going through my books and telling me what they want me to knit.

See the topsy turvy.

Now some prizes for my teaching daughters.

Some grandchildren claimed these before I could give them to the teachers.

My newest grandson wanted a lion.  It's amazing how a week old baby can have opinions.

I won't give this away yet.  I want to use the lion and this pig for basic patterns for more animals that I crochet.

The links to these patterns can be found on my Ravelry site.

Wesley's Quilt

Looking back I realized I hadn't posted this quilt that I made for Wesley, who is now 7 months old. They do grow quickly.  This quilt was a fast put together as it is just simple squares.

Here is Wesley and you can see his name at the bottom of the quilt.
