jumping back into quilting

I missed my sewing machine while we were up in Maine, but I can't possibly pack all the gear I would need like a machine, cutting equipment, and fabric. Absence makes the heart grow fonder and I have been busy as a bee, quilting my second crib sized top and making some pillowcase dresses with Mary. Her American Heritage Girls troop is making these as a service project, but she wasn't able to go so I volunteered to have her make a few at home. All that is required is a pillowcase (or about 1 yard of fabric), elastic, and double fold bias tape (I bought extra wide). They are so easy, only taking about 20 minutes to make, I may have to get some more bias tape so we can use up a few more of the wild fabrics in my stash.
