Ballet Boots!

"I wish I had rain boots!" has been Ashley's near-daily mantra since Elizabeth opened her pair on her 5th birthday.

Grammy and Pop-Pop heard our littlest ballerina's plea...and Aunt Jennifer, Uncle Mike, Matt, and Erin came through with a matching raincoat!

Ta-da!!!!!
And she didn't take them off for nearly 3 hours!
Now that's what I call Rain-Ready! ;-)

My daughter and I when to Doll House to buy a Sherri Lee dress that my daughter was obsessed with. I received no service from the sales staff until I asked. They gave my daughter a few styles to try on when asked what size my daughter would be, she pointed at the dress my daughter had on and said “that size”. I noticed that the dresses had no size tags on them and when I asked the sales staff about that, they got frustrated with me and gave no explanation. So I left the store with a much deflated daughter, went home and ordered the dress online and saved $200.

The conversation bubble unit is pieced improvisationally from two or more fabrics. Since it is pieced improvisationally, there is no exact yardage for me to tell you to purchase. In the quilt above, which is about 36x45" I used less than a yard each of the white, gray, and tan fabrics. You could, of course, use a single fabric for the background or mix it up even more than I have.

You can use one, several, or many fabrics for the contents of the conversation bubbles. I have about 20 fabrics in the bubbles, which made it fairly easy to keep the spread them around the quilt (not next to the same fabric in any direction.)


The core unit of the block has three sub-units, labelled in the picture below. Keep these numbers in mind as I refer to them throughout the tutorial.
