the cutest little sweater and some projects

For those of you who have not seen this project yet, I present you with a lovely little sweater Michelle made for the baby...

I just love the little puppy dog buttons. I can't wait to see little Rocco* in it. Thanks, Michelle...I love it :)

In other news, I have been trying to fit in a few small projects here and there, mostly out of guilt that I haven't really done much for this baby and Kaylee had a whole crib set, clothes, and toys sewn up by the time she arrived.

School is wrapping up this week though, I'm giving my students their final exam on Thursday and I just finished up my group project for my LAST CLASS at Milwaukee last night (I should have my degree in a few weeks!!), so I'm starting to have a bit more time. I whipped up a few burp cloths with leftover fabric from his baby quilt:

And I also made a garland for his hospital bed (no pics yet). I finally finished cutting all the strips for his quilt but haven't started sewing yet...maybe next week in the calm before the storm.

*Michelle's nickname for the baby, not his real name (he doesn't have one yet...we still have a few more weeks to figure that one out)
