Recycled Shirt Baby Quilt

Boy,

we had some bad storms blow through here again

last night and knocked out our power... again.

Thankfully it's back on this morning and

the internet is now working.

Next week I am going to visit my brother and sister-in-law

and while I am there I will be able to see

their new grandson and granddaughter.

I will also be delivering baby quilts.

You saw Ellie from the other day.

 

 

Well, last night I finished sewing the binding on the

baby quilt for their grandson...

my grand nephew.

This is made from recycled mens' shirts.

I used this bright green binding to bring out the brighter

colors in the blocks.

 

Making a log cabin quilt is something

I had not done in a long time.

I love how it turned out with all of the shirts.

 

It's so soft and cuddly already.

 

The label will be added and it will go in the pile

of things to be taken on the trip.

On the knitting front....

For those how have been reading my blog...

Do you remember this sweater I started last year?

Well... it's time to get this finished!!

Here is one sleeve.  I am almost finished with the knitting 

of the diagonal lines and will block it and then knit the

side panels.

Here is the pattern I am using.

I am going to have this finished by fall!
