Cookie Monster Shams


Cookie Monster looks pretty happy surrounded by all those cookies. Wonder if a little girl knows what Cookie Monster should do with so many cookies? See tomorrow how the shams take shape.

Cookie Monster Toddler Bed Skirt




Finished a cute little toddler bed skirt adorned with Cookie Monsters (-: Next items are Pillow Shams which I have already started on. I want to quilt the top of the shams so I may have to run get some batting (always looking for a good excuse to visit a fabric store) but otherwise should have the shams done today as well.

Cookie Monster Pillow Case




Well no Cookie Monsters on this pillow case (I wanted to keep it soft for a sweet little face to sleep on) but it has lots of pink and pink polk dot fabric (-: It will match the Cookie Monster Room perfectly.

Cookie Monster Curtains







Finished the Pink Polka dot curtains with pinwheels and a Cookie Monster applique which match the toddler quilt perfectly. So that my readers can see the entire curtain panels, I took a picture showing the full panel on my wide 72" window. I "crunched" it up on the second picture to show how it will hang on the more narrow window. The rod pocket is 1 1/2 inches wide to fit a standard curtain rod. The curtain has a second fabric panel/lining to give it plenty of weight and fullness.
I hope to have the bedskirt and pillow case done tomorrow with the Sham and Valance completed by then end of next weekend. (-:

Cookie Monster Bedskirt


My project continues with my friend and neighbor, Jennifer, http://havenintheoaks.blogspot.com/ We worked today on pink polka dot curtains and a matching bedskirt. Picture shows the side panels pinned to the platform piece. It will have cute pleats on each side and I will then applique Cookie Monster for an added touch.

Cookie Monster Update


The Cookie Monster toddler quilt is taking shape, I completed the quilting process today and hope to finish the binding tomorrow. I will make the binding myself before applying it to the outer edge. Depending on my time, I hope to have it completed in the next day or two. Unfortunately I have to work for a few hours tomorrow , tax season has us buried so it's been a busy few weeks with four weeks to go. My husband is wanting fried fish for Sunday Supper, and I plan to make a pot of chilli for the neighbor as well soooo Sunday will be busy indeed.

Cookie Monster


What would a Cookie Monster quilt be without cookies? I finished the quilt top, adding a pink border with chocolate chip cookes in each corner. I believe chocolate chip is Cookie Monster's favorite. The next step is to layer the top with a 100% cotton backing and Warm and white Batting. I hope to have it quilted this week.

(-: cute.

Added a polka dot frame around Cookie Monster. Pinwheels in pink and white with four more cookie monsters (can't have to many cookie monsters) will border the polka dots and another border of polka dots. Lots and lots of pink (-: too cute.

Cookie Monster Project


I continue to work on my Cookie Monster Project. I appliqued the larger C.M. for the center onto White fabric and completed more pinwheels. I believe I need 22 pinwheels for the quilt top and have about 10 made so far. My challenge now is to fine the perfect pink/white polka dot fabric to incorporate onto the quilt top. I found some Thursday but didn't like the quality so will look again this week.

Cookie Monster Project


I am really excited about my new project. I think it is going to be cute. It will be a toddler quilt for a young girl with Cookie Monster and lots of pink! Surprisingly it is difficult to find fabric with just Cookie Monster, most fabric has all of the Sesame Street Characters on it. So I am doing some applique. Right now I have four small Cookie Monster's appliqued to white and have started making some pink and white pinwheels. I plan to put a large C.M. in the center, more pinwheels and somewhere I want to add polka-dots. The pink in the pinwheels has a nice sparkle in it which may not be visable in the picture. Perfect for a little princess who loves Cookie Monster. Can't wait till I have time to do more work on this. I have allot going on right now so it will be a few days before I can get more work done on this.
