I now present...pinwheels in the park :)

I have mentioned before that I am WAY over date on my friend's E and B's wedding gift....they were married in September and I just gave them their quilt on Friday...oops :) Either way it is all done and I am excited to show it to you! I based this quilt off of the Pinwheels in the park quilt tutorial, I knew that this quilt was going to be a challenge and decided that since I already had 3 quilts under my belt I could handle it :) Here are some pictures  

This is the picture of the quilt that Rachel made for the Tutorial (see link above).

 Fabric fat quarters :)

 Cutting it all up... I love how this looks.

 Piecing them together.

 Trying to decide on a pattern.

 My least favorite part of quilting it binding...the long binding strip gets all mangled and tangled up...this time I had a brain wave....a banana clip!!! worked wonders :)

The back :)

I am beyond happy with how this turned out! E sent me a picture of B all cuddled up in it on Friday night...so cute :)

 I have also found my next project...I found this book in Chapters and couldn't leave it there (Mike said he wouldn't have been able to either...it's just that epic) I went to Michael's today and bought all the yarn with a 25% off your entire purchase coupon...I hope to start tonight.

 On Valentines day Mike and I made home made laundry soap!! It was the recipe from This blog and I must say I love it. Ours cost $19 for half of one of those home depot paint buckets...and we only need 1-2 scoops a load so it is going to last forever. It also smells amazing and clean, even after the dryer. I may be a convert :)

Isn't it adorable.

Hope you have a wonderful family day long weekend. I am going to a Roughnecks game and then going to join Mike at a cabin....where he will ice race and I will stay inside and knit. I love that this works so nicely for us and that he is fine with me staying inside all weekend (he wants us to come say hello once though).
