quilts...

This quilt was made for a friend's new baby, born the same week as my new grandson.

 This turtle quilt was made for my new grandson, Jesse Hakan Ricks.

 This quilt was made for our recently released Relief Society president, Debbie Lapioli.  Members of the Relief Society signed their names on the back.

 These quilt blocks are just some of the ones I made to use up my enormous amount of scraps.  I made this twin-sized quilt for my granddaughter, Kaitlyn, but I think Mia has it on her bed.

 This lap quilt was made from my stash and given to Myrna Cintron as a going away gift.

 "Sea Turtles"  made for my grandson, Dallin

New Dresses

The navy polka-dot was fabric from Grandma's stash; the dress was to fit the pattern for adjustments, but it worked well (after two re-dos) and she wore it to the NHS induction ceremony in May. We used the same pattern for the white dress she needed to be a junior escort for high school graduation (the top 10% of the junior class served as escorts to the seniors at their graduation ceremony---she ranks #3 in her class, what a girl!). The eyelet jumper is a cooperative design of our own. It turned out lovely and there was enough fabric left to make a matching dress for her niece. (which two-year-old Mia refuses to wear...)
