Baby Quilt Inspiration...

Baby quilts seem to be on the upcoming menu here (I love making baby quilts!). My son's girlfriend has another cousin expecting a baby and wants to make a quilt for the wee one, I want to do another one for a charity Bazaar and we have a young couple in our church expecting girl #2. All 3 of these will be girl quilts. So lots of pink is expected!

I have been looking around the Internet and have seen some lovely quilts to inspire..

This one is so simple and sweet....

I love the ruffled edge!

This is one of my faves.. I love the colors.. I will make this one day!

I am not sure a rag quilt is best for a baby, but I do love this. I have Fat Quarters for every fabric in this collection. It is one of my faves.

Another very simple quilt, but oh so sweet.

The initial adds a cute detail to this one.

Springy Inspiration...

Right now the Snowman Faces wall hanging is ... well hanging on the wall. But it is 70+ degress here (supposed to hit 81 later this week!) and muggy and just not very wintery. I am ready to transition the house to SPRING (oh that cool Spring temps would come with the transition and stay a long while). So I have been surfing the web (do we still call it surfing the web?) in search of inspiration and ideas for a Spring WallHanging. Here are a few I have found..

LOVE these flowers...
