Pillowcases & Masks

 I sewed three more pillowcases today - these are a surprise for Julie, Kate, and Susie.

Susie gets flamingos, Kate has the bunnies, and Julie the wildlife musicians (a juxtaposition of two things she likes!)

And I made matching masks for Lisa and Tyler. I will be meeting him this weekend and wanted to have something to give him. Lisa chose the fabric.

Nature Bags for Julie, Kate, & Susie

In anticipation of Cole's family coming to visit for the July 4th weekend, I made Julie, Kate, and Susie nature bags.

Using the leftover fabric from Susie's quiet book for the shoulder strap and top of the bag, I stitched three bags that they can use while out hiking and enjoying nature.

I hope that they are strong enough to hold what they find - I triple stitched the seams on the netting. Fingers crossed!

Patriotic Pillowcases for Lukie & Susie

Aside from their birthday pillowcases, I finished Lukie and Susie's set of holiday pillowcases with the patriotic ones that they can use for Memorial Day, the 4th of July, and Labor Day.

 Lukie got the pinwheels...

... and Susie wanted the fireworks.

Susie & Lukie's Easter Pillowcases

What with working on Melissa's quiet book and pandemic mask sewing, I forgot to post about the Easter pillowcases! Luckily, I remembered to make them on time.

These were the fabric choices that I had. (Thank goodness I have a stash of fabric on hand since I can't go out and shop while we are sheltering in place.)

Emily asked that I use the green bunny fabric for Susie's pillowcase,

and Vanessa asked for the blue Easter egg print. I delivered it to them along with a care package for each grandchild.

Lukie's Valentine Pillowcase & Some for Siblings, Too

I made this Valentine pillowcase for Lukie,

and when Ian and Mila saw it, they asked me to make them some more pillowcases. I was happy to oblige - I love sewing for them!

Mila wanted Belle and Ian couldn't decide between Mario and Spiderman so he got both.
