My First Quilt

McKenna's room is pink, green, and white. I was in need of a new project so I thought I would "whip" together a quilt for her when she graduates to her toddler bed. On sister day, we about finished quilting Sage's quilt in 3 hours... but there were 12 of us! It was a long process and I'm not sure I even want her to touch it now.

McKenna's room has a ballet theme. I thought it woudl be fun to make some throw pillows for the bed with appliques of ballerina's or ballet slippers on them. I couldn't find any appliques and you know what? Necessity really is the mother of invention. I created these ballet slipper pillows. RJ laughs at how pointy they are. You know what they say... fools mock!
