Baby Butterfly Doll

While my great niece was visiting for Christmas, I decided she needed a cute doll to take home with her. I used Bit of Whimsy's Baby Bumblebee pattern. Instead of using the bee wings from the pattern, I used Sew Mama Sew's Baby Butterfly tutorial, so it would be a cute butterfly doll to match the Bella Butterfly fabric scraps I used. I forgot to attach the wings before taking a photo, and forgot to snap another photo before gifting the doll. You'll just have to imagine butterfly wings made out of this fabric.

Backyard Baby Quilt and Coordinating Doll Quilt



Recently, I've been working on a baby quilt for my nephew, using my stash of Backyard Baby fabric that I've been hoarding for several years.




My nephew just turned 1, so for his birthday, my mom asked me to make a small quilt for the baby boy doll she got for him. I used some leftover 3.5" squares from his baby quilt, and a leftover piece of minky. I lucked out, and had some blue that matched for binding, so it came together quickly with no trips to the store for anything. I just love when that happens.
