It's been rainy here. So rainy in fact that we've sprouted mushrooms on our lawn. They're not desirable on a lawn but aren't they cute? Nature Girl really wanted pictures of them. As I grabbed the camera and headed out the door she said "Mommy take four, five, six, a hundred pictures." I didn't take a hundred but I took a few for her. They're so cute!
I finally started to sew the quilt for Nature Girl using the flamingo fabric Nancy sent. I decided to use one flamingo fabric on one side and the other fabric on the backside. I wanted to use fabrics that I already had. It seemed like a good idea at the time but I've used the fabrics I have that match and I don't know what else to add to make it bigger. I think it might have to remain a doll quilt.
Using the scraps from the borders I sewed this kite quilt for Nature Girl's room. She wanted to turn on the fan so she could fly it. I explained it was just a decoration for her room. Orange and pink are her favorite colors and her room is painted with flowers, grass and a sun. This kite is will be perfect for her room, even if it doesn't really fly.

The quilts look great! I love the vibrant colors. How big is the flamingo quilt?
What adorable quilts. Absolutely LOVE the flamingos! And tell Nature girl that hot pink and flaming orange are two of my favorite colors as well.
Adorable kite! Nature Girl looks so pleased. :)
Your quilt is really cute. You can certainly leave it a doll quilt if you want to finish it right now, but you might find you can make other blocks to go with it that coordinate even if they don't match, and make a wonderful quilt like no one else's!
What a cute little quilt kite. :-)
