Birthday Boys

May 21, 2011 By Katie

Brothers, and still young enough to be gifted a pillow, maybe even love it.

That little robot kills me.  He’s so stinkin’ cute.

On the flip side of the pillow, celebrating the 4th revolution around the sun.  I went with some corduroy that I’ve had around and never use.  This one I finished with an invisible zipper (I just redid my tutorial).

I popped this out of print Alexander Henry into my destash with some coordinates for making a pillow too.

For older brother, robots as well.  This print is flannel and I wish I had bought enough for a quilt back, just got scraps.

Big Boys dream in robot too.  Happy 6th revolution…

spinning on this lovely home.

Many smiles to you this year.

I know your Momma will like them too, because she gifted me some of the fabric.

I’m try to fit in some quilting today.

Happy Saturday!

    I have heard of but never used the tape as a guide for quilting. I do have that guide arm for my walking foot that I use. I may try this and see if it “feels” better or what.

    Can’t wait to see it complete!

    Love the pillows. I have a nephew, actually he is my cousin’s son who calls me Aunt, and he usually gets a quilt each year. This year he may just get PILLOWS! LOL.

    Happy B-Days to your boys!

      I hate the guide. I actually used it for the lines in the photo and then took them out and went with tape again.

      Kokka fabric is the best. Wish I had a ton of this one.

Christmas decor is all packed up. We repurposed th Christmas decor is all packed up. We repurposed the IKEA wood fabric that generally hangs during the season into a fireplace screen to keep Boss and the Roomba out.
