I got a sewing machine for Christmas and I don't know how to sew. I'm learning as I go. I made this quilt..thanks to charm packs (pre-cut squares of fabric that match...you probably already new that, but I didn't) and a good friend who convinced me to buy them...
I must say that I just love looking at it. It's not perfect, but I made it all the way down to the binding.
I also made superhero capes for my big kiddo's. They are reversible batman/superman capes. Black and red for Kyle and pink and purple for Anna. I knew that if I made a cape for Kyle that Anna would want one too....she is not a girlie-girl at all but she does love pink and purple. Perfect!! Now they each have one and we can tell who's is who's.
I don't know why they are looking at each other like that....hopefully thinking good thoughts!!!
They both wore them all day yesterday and put them on first thing this morning (Anna is still wearing her's and Kyle put his in a safe place for some after-school-crime-fighting!!!)
And this little guy is still happy just to have a full tummy and a clean bottom!!

You did such a great job. I have wanted to make capes but never have - your look great! Did you do iron ons for the superman shield - or whatever it is called? You look like you are a really fast learner
