Anywho...t-shirt quilt #2 is finished. This is for my best friend and got it finished by his birthday!! Yay for making goals! Again, here is where I learned how to make my t-shirt (or memory) quilts. I have two more planned. One is for another totally awesome friend and the second is all my WSU shirts. That one will be interested because I plan on using my spare set of WSU bed sheets for sashing, binding and backing material.
Also finished is the first of two blankets for my nephew. My sister found the material kit for this one while we were going through my late mother's sewing room. Since I know how to quilt, she handed it to me and asked me to make it for her. It's minky fabric, which sped up the purchase of a walking foot (best investment so far!) and while the new foot has made quilting much more enjoyable, if I ever work with minky again, it will be too soon! It sheds like no one's business when cut, it was EVERYWHERE when I took it out of the bag. The nice thing is that it's fluffy enough that I didn't need to be too conservative with my whip stitching on the binding, just needed to make sure it was secure. It's super soft and super warm, I have a feeling mom will be using it more than baby...
Now switching gears to crochet and knitting. At least I can work on those projects during class. :D
