I very recently talked myself into buying a new electronic sewing machine. To say I was excited was a bit of an understatement. Making this little project was my main motivator (or so I told myself). My super basic Singer sewing machine would have gotten the job done, as I had just finished making a girlie version of this quilt, but not without some trouble and unwanted hassle. So, new sewing machine it was. This is the little quilt I made for Bayle, the absolutely adorable brand new little boy of some of my besties.

The colors are a bit brighter than my phone shows. Mike did a great job of helping me pick out the fabrics, even though I'm positive he'd rather have been taking a nap before work.

Children can never have enough blankets, no? I know I can't, so the same must apply to little ones.

Here's a closeup of the fun topstitching that I was able to do with my fancy new Brother sewing machine. Thanks Lulu for stepping in the picture. Always has to be a part of everything, that cat. To the Austin's, I'm sorry about the cat hair you inevitably took home with you; I really did do my best to keep them off of it.

Next up: Aprons!
