I won a few things on the Sew Mama Sew Giveaway Day!
The first prize to arrive was this:
a charm pack from from blank pages....
All lovely! It doesn't quite match the baby's things, and I haven't been sewing for myself much with the option to sew for babies, and it's so fun I don't want to sit around waiting for something to strike me as the right project, so... I have a friend with a baby of as-yet-unknown gender on the way, and the parents aren't too worried about giving a boy things with pink... so I think I'll make this:
the Windy Days Quilt found over at Moda Bake Shop. I love the scattered nature of the pinwheels and that they're different sizes - looks more random, while still being orderly enough to suit my engineer-brain, and not "wonky," which wouldn't suit my engineer-brain at all.
But with a dark background instead of the white - both makes it a little more modern, to suit the recipients, and much more stainy-baby-friendly!
A bit of my own stash for one or two of the bigger pinwheels and I should be ready to go!
