Taggie pillers

My friend Kristin’s mom is running a little sale at her home in a few weeks, and they invited me to sell some stuff there. Since I don’t have any quilts ready to go yet, Kristin suggested I make some pillows. I do make pretty cute embroidered pillows - usually I do baby pillows with the baby’s first and middle name, and their birthday. For this boutique I thought it would be better to have some items that can be sold as-is and not special-ordered. I found some pictures of “taggie” pillows and blankets for babies. The edges are full ribbon loops for babies to enjoy - I know firsthand that these are very popular with Baby Jamie. So I decided to make some of those. Below are some pictures of my first efforts. The first was a rectangle, the second a square. The fronts are patchwork, including some soft and furry fabrics with different textures.

- Don't go to work Dad. I like you. I don't want to miss you!

- Does this chicken have fish in it?

- (in a robot voice) I am a robot. Do as I say!

- Mom, will you please get out of bed and get me some breakfast?

- I don't want calzones! I want something tasty!

- Oh, donut! (darnit)

James says funny stuff

- Don't cook Mom! Come watch the movie!

- I had a nice nap.

- (After I asked him to open a door and go inside) I can't do it. I'm too small.

- I want some Cheerios, please. In this bowl (pointing to bowl). And milk. In this bowl, on the Cheerios. Oh, and I need a spoon.

- I don't like it! (Takes a little taste) I like it!

- (rolling a marble across the floor) Look Mom, I'm bowling!

- Oh, donut! (darnit)

I write about stuff
