Well the featherweight is flying, ( see what I did there?)
and I am getting some things done!
I am heavy into the list making mode too, so some items are
moving around in the lineup !!
First up is the lovely bundle of baby sleepers that were
out grown by the GKs. Two bags of potential were lurking
under the sewing desk for months!
in the wings for assembly . Putting them on my
blog to do list, really helped me focus on them.
A few different layouts finally came together.
Even the little arms and legs of the sleepers were
called up into service as the fringe parts!
the result is two cuddly little quilts that
should be great around the campfire this summer.
The backs are flannel for some added warmth.
The best part of this is the sleepers aren't lurking anymore
and I can check one thing off my list, yay!!!
Next up are some layers to be quilted so on to the stitching!
Stay safe and sew on !!

I am definitely on a roll. Just finishing a binding then on to the charity quilts!
DeleteThat was an excellent idea, love the colors of the sleepers. Thank you for linking up to Put your foot down.
ReplyDeleteThey worked surprisingly well. I did have to cut around a few stains and discard some that were too pilly. They should be great for camping!
DeleteThey look so soft and snuggly!
ReplyDeleteThey are ! The flannel backs make them extra soft!
DeleteWhat a creative use of outgrown onesies. You are the poster child for repurpose, reuse and recycle.
ReplyDeleteAww , thanks. Little sleepers are just too cute to toss out and my DIL is a real softy herself. The baby/toddler stage goes so fast it is nice to see the little sleepers again.
DeleteThese little quilts are so sweet. They look so soft and cuddly! Thanks for sharing with us at Monday Musings!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome. I think GK will really enjoy them!
DeleteLovely baby sleepers, they look very cozy and warm. I love the cute prints ;)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing!
Thank you , they will be very durable too. Sleeper fabric never seems to wear out!
DeleteWhat a great idea! The GKs will love snuggling up with them. Have a good sewing week.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Still snowy here, sew perfect sew time!
DeleteThat is a great idea. Campfire Cozies!!! I don't have recycled sleepers, but boy do I have bit and pieces of flannel. I may try to do something similar.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use those sleepers! They've been given a second life, and will make for some cozy campfires, for sure.
ReplyDeleteVery cute quilts. Congrats on getting both to the finished line. It always feels so good to check one off the list.
ReplyDeleteHi Deb, those are so cute! I love the fringe. Did you stitch-in-the-ditch. They would be great for practicing any kind of machine quilting. Thanks for linking up to Free Motion Mavericks.
