Okay so I did this pin in the last 2 wks http://pinterest.com/pin/148126275214813788/ ....Now this one is a dousey ...its by far the one that's taken me the longest but well worth it...Now I didn't do play by play pics because I forgot I had put this one in my "I can make that" pinterest Folder ...however I did manage to get a few pic since I do these for my sewing business I have and I like to take some pics to show progress to the clients.....so heeeerrrrrreeeee she goesss!

A first year quilt....thing's you'll need
Thread
Baby clothes
Fabric (which ever you want to use) I chose Minky and flannel
A sewing machine
A shit load of pins
Stabilizer
Iron
Badding
PATIENCE!
A understanding husband
Perfect kids that behave while you sew
.....Okay some of those are a long shot but we all can dream

Okay first Take all the clothes you want on this quilt for sure and cut them however you please ..I halved most and used bits and parts of others here and there, I also cut out cute tags for this one like "queen bee" ect. Lay them all out so you can get an Idea of where you want them to go and the placing ..
Now I topped stitched all mine to give it a extra funky look but you can seam them together from the back side as well...at this point because of the type of fabric these clothes are mostly made of you want to iron on a Stabilizer so they don't shift on you so go do that now..lol....next  pin and sew...pin and sew...pin and sew...now that your done with that ...which trust when I say it takes a good amount of time doing this...that's why when you have them made there not cheap....like I said a understanding husband and perfect children! lol...ok so now we have it all sewn together next you want to lay down your backing and place your badding on top...then lay down the clothes that are sewn ...what I do is Pin around the edge and trim off excess of the clothes to meet with the backing and safety pin the whole quilt in about 30 places to make sure nothing slips or moves...next after all your excess is trimmed you need to make your bias (trim for edge of blanket) now you can buy some pre made but I like to save money and make my own...here's a pin for that..now I didn't use this pin because I already know how but here ya go it just chalks it up to one more pin for me lol http://pinterest.com/pin/148126275214976694/ Okay now you've made your Bias time to put it on and start pinning again! okay Poof that's done! Your Quick man! Okay now time to sew!!!!! I choose a cute flowery stitch! Okay wow your done with that already ...flippin sweet! so it should look something like this!
