Rainy Day Quilt and a Pirate Skirt

I was looking through some crafty websites and I found this quilt pattern that was just calling my name. Did I really need another project to add to my list? (I think I have craft ADD) Probably not, but I knew this one would not take too long to finish and I felt like my heart quilt needed to be changed. In one rainy day afternoon, while my Kaleb was sleeping, I worked on these projects.

I found the free pattern  here. It isn't quilted yet but I love the colors. Most of the fabric I used came from America. It was easy to put together. It is not perfect but I like it. I hope to have it finished by this weekend. (J is singing a rainy day song for you)

This was definitely on my project list. I had the sewing machine already out and Kaleb was still sleeping (for another ten minutes). The bandanas came from America this summer. That's how long I have wanted to make this pirate skirt. It was easy to do although I didn't have a t-shirt to cut up for the waist band. I used the left over sheet from Keke's Red Riding Hood cape that I made in October. The idea came from alphamom.com. I think she likes it but she is now asking for a pirate hat and sword.

It is pretty short, I should have made the waist band longer. She will probably only wear it for dress up or over some black leggings. It turned out cute and it IS in her favorite color.
