A few more items that I've made have been given to the recipient, so I can show you.
I hand quilted this diamond chevron quilt and gave it to my daughter at her baby shower on Saturday. Her in-laws brought the basinette that her husband used when he was a baby. The look great together.
This is very hard to photograph, but it was sure fun to make. I cut out two of each of the animals from some of the fabric she is using to decorate the nursery, sewed them together, lightly stuffed them with polyfil and then hung them with ribbons from a 10" embroidery hoop. I filled the hoop until it was covered with lots of matching ribbons and also more ribbons to hang it.
Here she is at her baby shower:
So cute! Only two months to go!

Mary, they look so cute! Bet you can't wait to meet the new little grandperson! Hope all goes well, those last two months can be very long!!! Susie x
I think the Chevron pattern makes the perfect baby quilt! And I love orange and aqua together!
Very nice Mary. I love the mobile. Your family is growing and growing nicely.
Wonderful Mary! How exciting to have a new little one soon!
I just love your baby and little kiddie sewing projects. How exciting to have another little one to snuggle. Beautiful quilt and darling mobile.
It looks like you are having a lot of fun!
I love all the sweet baby projects you've been working on. And maybe we all need that mobile hanging overhead as some eye candy across the room!
How fun! The chevron quilt is adorable, as is the mobile. Anticipation is great, isn't it?
The quilt is lovely.
I like the idea you used for the mobile. That's lovely, too.
Great baby gifts! I love the chevron quilt :-) What an exciting time!
Lovely quilt and mobile Mary.
It's fun working on baby things.
Best wishes for the little one.

Great baby gifts, and I love that diamond quilt! You are a fabulous grandmother, and it's fun to see you "shower" your future grandchild with gifts--always a fun grandma thing to do!
