Nursery Progress

Still just in the sewing phase of getting Sabrina's room ready, which means her room still looks like this....

My mother-in-law will be staying in this room in less than 3 weeks....

It has been a catch-all for Kayla's old stuff and my sewing stuff.  Oh, well.  I can see a light at the end of the tunnel now that sewing is almost done.  So far her diaper holder, dust ruffle, quilt, and bumper are completely done!  I'll be moving on to a cornice, embellishing store-bought curtains, and a nursing cover-up soon.

While working on the bumper, I learned a bit better how to do applique on the sewing machine.  It really simplified things, but made me realize I needed to change how I did it already on the quilt.  Actually, Jeremy helped me come to this conclusion....arg.  He helped me seam rip (my least favorite thing!) to remove the other appliques from the quilt.

 Here is the finished quilt, appliques resewn, quilted, and bound.  My first quilt to ever completely finish. 

The only bad thing about fixing the appliques after the quilt had already been quilted and bound was that I couldn't hide my back stitching from redoing the bee and the S.  We both reasoned that a backwards bee and S would be better than the original anyway.  He still looks cute.  :)
