Baby 'toss down' Story Quilt

This story quilt is divided into quadrants: Imagination, Outdoors, Stories/Words, Science. The fabric designs inspire the stories.

It is an easy size to toss down on the floor while you are
juggling your little one. And while your sitting and playing
you can look at the images and think up tales to tell.

All cotton fabric and batting is prewashed and ready to go.

Let's play!

If variety is the spice of life, keep creating!

Art using vintage shutter slats to give direction.

Funky sock monsters that are soft, squeezable, hilarious ( & looking for a little hug)

And a new crop of hand dolls to delight.

{ animals are irresistible }

Excited to start a project that mixes paints & fabric

 It all starts with a pencil sketch on primed cotton canvas. 

Then layering watercolors until they feel "right" with the images. 

Whimsical colors and design to appeal to everyone. 

Next the art is stitched to a canvas back and cotton batting is added. 

Final step is adding the perfect comment to the back. 

You have a hand sized doll to give inspiration, 

a laugh, comfort or whatever is needed.

Done and done!

Crazy how handcrafting can go in so many directions!

Take a gander & enjoy ~

Sometimes it just takes the littlest thing 

to inspire an idea. In this case it 

was discovering a wonderful piece of 

handwork, but  due to years of fond use it 

could no longer be displayed as 

originally intended. 

Now it has a new life in this crafters/utility apron. 

Set off by a color palette that showcases 

it as the art it still is. A joy to wear!

A little vintage garden art

What better use for grandma's tableware 

than reminding you what you planted where.

These vintage beauties are hand flattened 

and stamped {by stronger arms than mine} 

with plant names and whimsy.

windowsill flower pot.
