designing the baby quilt

back to working on the baby quilt...
decided to add some pink to the soft peachy pink blocks....
also added 8 1/2" blocks mixed with the 6 1/2" blocks...

then I needed to add some 4 1/2" x 8 1/2" blocks...
so I have 2 blocks together make 8 1/2" x 13" blocks...
and 2 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" blocks for 6 1/2" x 13" blocks ...
it seems like this is a good layout...
wondering if this looks okay??...
I kind of like the added pink to the layout...

I finally got the BIG SHOT...
looking forward to making fun projects...
and I will learn how to use it with fabric too...
but I am still working full time for another month...

I will post photos from my card making class another day...

Here is a question for any nurses reading this...
How are you coming on the transition from MDS 2.0 to MDS 3.0??
I work in a skilled nursing facility and October 1 is fast approaching!!

feeling the love

today I am working on a baby quilt...
a precious beautiful little girl was born last week...
and I work with her mom....
I am using 5 different block designs...
some are fussy cut from Beatrix Potter fabric...

most of these fabrics are such a soft peachy pink...

the last photo shows the fabrics I am using for a log cabin block...
there are other projects I am also working on and I will show then another time!!
