I got the first three of mine done plus six hobby horses. I still have the back of the car seats 'totes' to do. That shouldn't take long.

for mom... thinking a quilted ( sweatshirt ) jacket.
for the 10y/o Gdtr..... and the 15 y/o G son.. and others, I have no clue.!!!!
I did a quilt for mom, personalized towels for all G kids last year....
I really love the "clutter catchers" this might work for my OCD dtr......

That is neat CarmanMarie! I borrowed the first two from a friend and she has several of those kinds of patterns. The Lion sleeping bag I have no idea where I got it from. They all turned out very cute though.

My lion has feet not a sleeping bag. I tied his mane with yarn. I also have a skunk, dragon,frog and hippo pattern. My kids still have their quilts, well my son does, daughters is here with me. Your kids will love them. Post photo's.

Those are really pretty! That will be a great gift. That Sew Baby pattern I think I got at Joann fabrics from a rack separate from their other patterns.

What I like is they are big enough to use under a bowl of soup, or a lunch plate. I also, want to embrodiery some Christmas towels. I have a quilt to make for a gift too.
I like your sew baby pattern especially.
