Feathering the Nest

Baby crafting right up to your due date provides not only distraction, but also a great motivation to complete projects. In that spirit, I passed some Braxton-Hicks moments this weekend by wrapping up the following:





The impending baby's fetal name is la quetsch (a small Alsatian plum). These plums are commonly used to make eau de vie and fruit tarts.

Two items for Jonah as he comes a big brother (which we keep talking about, although I can't tell if it makes any sense at all to him!). All of these appliqués were made with scanned/found-online images that I printed onto printable fabric sheets and then adhered using Steam-a-Seam before encasing edges in zigzag stitch. This technique has a lot of potential!
