Craft Sale

Last weekend I did a little craft sale with some friends. I had my baby shoes, quilt, and stamped dishtowels to sell. It was a lot of fun, and we all made a few sales and got to talk about sewing and crafting for a few hours! :) I do have some products left over, so I guess I'm stocked up on baby shower gifts for a while... :)

Painted Dishtowels

I've made these painted dishtowels a few times now, and I really love them. I buy the thin flour sack towels and then use fabric paint to stamp the designs on.  I think the polka dots are my favorite, but I like the circles, too, and it doesn't take much paint at all!

Cloth Baby Shoes

I've been working on more projects for a craft sale I'm a part of tomorrow. I made nine pairs of these adorable cloth baby shoes to sell. I bought the Lilac baby booties pattern (which also comes rights to sell the product) from ithinksew and was really pleased with it. They are fully reversible and sewed up really quickly. I used some leather scraps for most of the soles, and I love how they look!

Baby Quilt

I've been sewing a few things to sell at a craft sale next weekend. I put this baby quilt together with a bunch of floral scraps I have had for a while. I love the fabrics, but there wasn't enough of any one of them to really make anything with them. I'm so glad I finally used them and I love how this little quilt turned out!
I used a pink and white polka dot cotton for the back, and did a simple chevron quilting pattern that looks really cute from the front and the back! I hand stitched the binding. The final size is about 30 inches square.

I really love how it turned out and would be tempted to keep it if I had a little baby girl! :)
