Easter clothes

I wanted to go and buy my children cute Easter outfits this year. Unfortunately in our current situation that was unrealistic. I looked through my fabric stash that I randomly buy from the remnant section. I decided to make Akoy a tie and Lily a skirt. I loved how they turned out. Love them so much. However, I made Lily a easy skirt and unfortunately it doesn't fit. It kinda worked and I made do for some pictures that I sent to the grandparents. But I'm not sure if I will have her wear it on Sunday. It just goes to a super tight mini skirt when she crawls. 

Akoy was such a hoot while taking pictures. My favorite picture turned out a little blurry but I don't care.

This is the first time I had her stand up. She only stayed like this for 20 or so seconds. I took these by myself so that made for a challenge. She fell a couple of times but loved the cuddles after. 

The pictures on the ground did not turn out at all. 

I tried to take a picture of them together and they just wouldn't cooperate.

I had a weird angle. I couldn't see what I was doing. But I love this picture. It shows how much Lily loves Akoy.

Car Seat Quilt

I have wanted to make a quilt from start to finish by myself for awhile. Step by step I am getting there. I helped my sister Brooke out a little bit with Akoy's quilt. Then I sewed Lily's quilt while someone else quilted it and Brooke helped me out with binding it. With my new sewing machine, I found a free hand quilting foot for a couple bucks off Amazon. I found this tutorial for a Car seat quilt. It was perfect! A small project that I could just try to teach myself a few things. 


Lily's carseat quilt isn't perfect at all. But I love it! I love how it turned out. This quilt and I had a love hate relationship. At times I would love it and then others I thought it was just failing and I hated it. I went back and forth at least 4 times. Lily loves it and I love it, and that is all that matters! Don't look too closely at all my mistakes!
