I'm up to 32 so far which puts me about on par for success. So here are a few pictures.
Projects 4-18 were projects to donate to my girls' classes at school for their fall festival fund raising thing. Their classroom themes for donation were dress-up and baby stuff. So there are 5 capes, and 3 sets of flannel blankets, burp rags and bibs. They were all very fun to make. And for the flannel stuff, I used flannel that my mom gave me like 5 years ago and I've never used (getting rid of some of that stuff that John would like gone to make him happy).
Project 19 was another quilt block for my class. It turned out pretty well.
Project 20-31 were making my friend's daughters I-spy quilts. They had several embroideries and iron-on stuff so every little bit counts. They turned out really cute and Lily really wanted to keep at least one. ( I cut out one for her while I was doing it so she soon will have one of her own.)
And Project 32, I fixed Mary's awesome cape that Kaylynn made for her. Her letter was coming off. She was very happy that I "finally" fixed it.

TARA!! The I spy quilts are spectacular!! The girls and I love and adore them==they have been lugging them around with them all over the new house and they love the dolls you included for them as well.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!
Evan wants a spiderman cape. How did you do the embroidering? Did you use a pattern? I'd like to do something similar to the "Olivia" one for Madelyn's I-Spy, and something cool like that for Evan too. Very cute!
Let me make Evan and Anson ones for Christmas. They were super easy. And the embroidery I just traced out of a scrapbooking/stamp book. Then I embroidered it. You can also find great things in coloring books or clipart. I did the letters on the computer and traced them too. It's super easy. Then it is all pretty much backstitch with a few little easy embroidery stitches thrown in.
Oh, and I'm glad you guys like the quilts. I've been planning on doing them since you were with pregnant with M, when I bought the dolls. Better late than never.
