This week my 10yo daughter and I have been working on our entries. Our first project was a Penguin Pillow.... She drew the penguin and I turned it into a fusible applique pillow.... And I used lots of decorative stitching for quilting the borders.
and he looked lonely so we also worked on a Polar Bear Pillow.
Here they are both together....
Also using Connecting Threads Christmas Mini Charm we made a quilt top for a table topper... Haven't decided what to back this with, or what to use for binding.... And I'm out of batting, so this will have to wait until I can get to town (or get my husband to bring some in his backpack to the island)
Thank you for making time to visit, I really appreciate it. Please visit the other blogs at the links above. They all have beautiful projects to share and perhaps a Giveaway or two. Thank you!

Your pillows are adorable!
OMG, what cute pillows and to have your daughter help was the best part, I'm sure.
Your 10 yo daughter is a very talented young artist. I went back and reread to be sure that it was a 10 year old who made the patterns. Wow! I went down some major rabbit trails looking at your blog. You are obviously very involved with all your children I had a good chuckle at the Easter egg finish. Gramdma got her egg and the children forgot about the one at home. I love how you involve the different children in different aspects of the project. I saw how the children have been involved in camps this summer. I am glad to see children involved in activities and not glued to a television or a hand held device. Your son appears to be accomplished on the bag pipes - that is not an easy instrument to play. I am amazed that he has had the tenacity. I adore the ornament runner. However, you decide to finish it, it will be stunning. Thank you for participating and sharing your creativity as well as that of your daughter. You made me miss my mom today. She and I did projects together until I left home and then we'd discuss them long distance as long as she was alive.
How cute are those pillows. Your daughter is very talented to have drawn those too.
Can I borrow your designer! :-) Beautiful projects!
Very talented artist your daughter! Love the pillows. Batting is light weight, hubby should have no problem, right!?
Great projects! Love the sweet penguin.
Looks like your daughter is talented like her Mom!
Thanks for sharing!
What a fun little treasure for your daughter's drawing. Just too cute.
Great job on design and execution or your sew sweet pillows. Your detail is wonderful. Love the fish. The table topper will be a wonderful holiday addition to your home, again love the detail of the hooks.
Love the pillows! My favorite is the penguin! Your daughter definitely is talented, just like her mom. Thanks for sharing. Hope you get your binding soon.
What darling pillows! Thanks so much for sharing!
Your projects are just wonderful! Please tell your daughter that I think she is very talented and has a future in quilt design. How lucky you are to have such a creative partner to work with!
Aw, you pillow creatures are loveable. They really are sweet. I love your ornament runner, too. Nice projects.
