The Best laid plans went awry

So my goal a few months ago, was to finish all those projects up before Christmas. Well, most of them were done and some I decided just weren't necessary to be done in that timeline and that spending more time with my kids having fun was way more important. They did get their pillowcases on Christmas Eve and they loved getting to do special things with Daddy on Christmas day. Since then, I've undertaken several other sewing projects for birthdays and other things. That turtle quilt is still undone, just needs a few more squares quilted and then the binding goes on. My princess in training has been getting some sewing lessons and having some more input on what we're making for her. My oldest prince has also gotten some sewing lessons and let me help him make a quilt for his teacher. We've been busy as can be, but still have fun doing something crafty every now and then and will be posting some pictures (that is if I can find them on this computer that doesn't let me view thumbnails). There's another big project in the making coming up that I will posting about-hint: my P-I-T starts school in 4 months.


This was a set I made for one of our maids who is expecting a girl sometime this month:




Here's my #1 prince during his first sewing lesson, his 1st grade teacher is expecting and she loves Dr. Seuss. He decided where the squares went and in what order and pinned them together and pushed the buttons and helped lay it out and chose the backing and the yarn and everything!
