Mystery Quilt Completed!

A short time back, I posted about a new quilt project my little group was starting....well it is finally finished!
I should have finished a few weeks ago, but had Lily's 6th Birthday Party to attend instead of my quilt group! I missed out on seeing all the other ladies' quilts, but I hope to see them next month.
  
First, we cut out all the individual squares. Then, each month, received a new set of directions on how to sew them together. It was a fun project! The completed quilt is 40 x 40. I think I will have it quilted and hang in my future craft room!

We are starting our 3rd group project next month....each of us will design a 12x12 quilt block to share with the group. Our finished quilts will have one of each of the member's designs. Looking forward to more quilting and learning new sewing skills!

Extra Popcorn

Just thought I'd throw a few other pics of the popcorn project on here.

C'mon, ladies, let's see some crafty stuff here!!  :)


Not too pleased with the bottom :(

And just because I'm here, I'll show you what happens to a wool diaper soaker (the cover you put over cotton diapers) when it accidentally gets put into the washing machine.


This now won't even fit Aren bare tooshed.  It might fit on a newborn, though.  Maybe.  I'll tell ya, though, it is thick!  If it will fit on a newborn in a cloth diaper, it would be pretty bullet-proof!   No leaks there!
