Little Lambkin Pillows

It is always fun to make something special for a little one having a birthday.  I saw this pattern when a blogger friend posted pictures of her pillow on her blog, A Quilting Sheep.  I followed the link she shared and purchased the pattern right away here at Ellis and Higgs.


I have two granddaughter with birthdays a week or so apart so I made two pillows, one for each of them.  They were pretty simple and fun to put together.

This pillow is for Mollie, she is now 5.

This pillow is for Emalynn, she will be 5 in a couple of days.

We will celebrate with both of them tomorrow, time to get the pillows wrapped up and ready for the party.  It was fun to do a little sewing and it may be a while before I get another chance. I am slowly moving all of my sewing stuff to my new sewing room.  So much sorting and organizing, so little time.

April Finish Goal

 I am taking this project from my list of goals I created for the UFO Challenge 2017 at allpeoplequilt.com.  I will be linking with One Monthly Goal at Elm Street Quilts.  The number chosen for April is 11 and the means I will be working on my "Holiday in London Duffle Bag."  I purchased the fabric and the other things necessary for completing the bag and had intended to follow along with the tutorial Bari J posted on her blog.  Things happened and needless to say I have not started the project.  It has been a couple of years.  I feel like this may be a challenge to complete this month but who doesn't need a challenge.  I will do my best and see what happens.


Happy Stitching!
