Because it looked like Zoe Hart was holding up the quilt and her head was really small? Sorry about that- I probably should have taken a better picture of it , and I will, but that was a quick one I took to show my friend that I had one completed. The purple one in that group isn't even completed so I need a better photo of that one too.

Thanks, debcavan. That cutie in my avatar is my youngest grandson and I need to update my picture! He's almost 20 months old now and only 9 1/2 mos. in that picture. He is so smart and cute- learning so fast. We FaceTimed last night with them and he kept kissing the phone to say goodbye!

Thanks everyone for the kind compliments. To me it seems like I haven't gotten a lot accomplished because I haven't crossed anything off my list! This proves that I have done things but I got sidetracked! Haha.I have a baby quilt to finish before May 4th and then maybe I can get back to my list.

My goodness, you've been busy. Do those little owl purses go together quickly? I've been reluctant to try one because of the 'fiddly' binding into a handle thing.

Oooh, I really like the tote with the yellow flower? Which pattern is that?

IBQLTN- i really didn't have trouble with the owl purses at all. As long as the fabric is cut on the bias so it goes around the curve, it seemed to go well. The eyes were supposed to be large buttons and I was not willing to pay several dollars each, I made yoyos instead. I actually like them better than buttons.
MammaDorian-this tote was made from placemats and napkins that I picked up from A thrift store. The flower pattern was in a magazine. I just put it together working it out as I went along. It was very easy.
