Lots of projects getting done.

Cradle for our new little one.  The cradle was made by my dad 11 years ago for my oldest and each baby since has used it.  The Clifford is a contribution by Z toward making his brother feel welcome.  The blanket, I made for the baby with fabric selected by Z  and a double row of crochet - my 1st attempt.





Other things we've worked on in the last month or so..... baskets and pillows.












So what's up next?  Dresses for the girls and a vest for the boy.  Also a diaper bag, an ABC quilt, and a carry bag for A's violin support.  It's going to be a busy few weeks.  My goal is to have everything, except all 4 dresses finished by Thanksgiving.  The dresses, I think, will be a good last week project.
