Valentine Distraction

"Doc" Project Update:  As usual,  I was overly optimistic on my anticipated progress so I don't have a picture to post yet.  The binding is 'mostly' finished and I am so pleased with the look. My quilt lable is designed thanks to a fairly new purchase:  A Bareroot's pattern called  "Quilt & Stitchery Labels"  that I picked up from last July's visit to the Fat Quarter Quilt Shop in Vista, California
 
 
One of the reasons that "Doc" isn't done is that I tend to get distracted very easily . . . I always have several projects in various stages  &  there are always new ones that are driven by the changing seasons, upcoming holidays or latest shopping trip.

My Valentine Distraction:

A little valentine bib for one of the special little men in my life.  I ran across this little Felties Valentine Kit at Beverly's.   Amazingly I had just the right fabric ~ some T-shirt ribbing, Babyville Boutique Polyurethane Laminated Fabric for most of the bib,  brown polk-a-dot cotton from the stash to add onto the bottom, plus a little vinyl crumb catcher.  Note to self: The pattern was a tad short (must be the t-shirt neck style), adjust the length of the  pattern.
