Baby Blankets

My oldest son's best friend found out he's having twins ( girls), my son decided that he wanted me to make the girls baby blankets from him. I  took  my oldest to the local sewing store and he picked out all the fabrics for the baby blankets, he decided that he wanted them double fleece and with a fleece border going around them. I decided that since these blankets were done in fleece that I wasn't going to put batting in between them. I love the fleece that my son picked out for these baby blankets. The size I ended up with for these baby blankets was 52" x 60". I made them bigger so that way when the girls are growing they can use them as bigger blankets. I also embroidered the girl's name's on them. My son decided that the embroidery should be done with variegated thread. With all the pinks for these blankets, I think it looks really cute

Simplicity 2336: Khaliah ali Collection

I just finished making the Simplicity 2336: Khaliah Ali Collection , This pattern is Misses'/women's Skirt , Pants, Jacket and Knit dress And Tops. I made View D: The Jacket and View B one of the Tops. Both the Jactet and Top are for stretch knits only. For the jacket I used was a Charcoal Gray interlock knit. I love the color and the way this jacket flows, it reminds me of a swing coat , only lighter.  The Top I made was out of a rayon-lycra knit. I love this fabric's colors so I decided this is the top I want!!!!
