Pooh Throw
I made this pooh throw for me :) Its 43 x 58. It cost about $23.00 to make. The actual blanket binding makes it more, it took 2 packs and it costs $3.96 a pack! The material for both sides and the filling was only $15!
Mom's Quilt
This is the quilt I made mom for her birthday. It was from me, Michael, and Jeannie. Michael suggested putting out names on it, but I couldnt get the curves right so I just did our 1st initials.
Curtains
This was actually the 3rd set I made, but apparently I didnt save the pictures form the 1st 2. I did a staright valance for these. I think a scrunchy one would have looked better. The lady I made these for sent me the material, but I only charged her $10.00 to make them.
Burp Cloths
One of he first things I started making was Burp cloths. I decided to do these because I wanted some for Anakin, and I though paying $9.00 for 3 at walmart was rediculous! I did find out with these that the flannel has to be pre-washed! Or it shrinks and the backing doesnt! lol Unfortunatly I realized this after Anakin was born and after I had sold some, but no one emailed back to complain, so I guess they didnt mind.
They are pretty cheap and fairly easy to make. I can make 8 out of a 1/2 of yard of fabric. If I remember right for 1/2 yard of flannel and 1/2 yard of the backing it cost under $4.00.
