My friend, Jen, was able to get me a advance copy of Last-Minute Patchwork & Quilted Gifts. The book has beautiful photos and a lot of great projects. One of my favorites is the wall quilt called, Someone to Watch Over You. I have already bought the fabric so I can make one for my baby. I still do not know the gender of the baby yet, but I chose brown and green for the wall quilt.Here are a few pictures of the projects from the book. There are a total of 30 projects in the book and they are organized by the amount of time it takes to complete them, just like Last-Minute Knitted Gifts. It's another great book by Joelle Hoverson. Enjoy the pictures and have a nice Labor Day weekend!

That looks like a great book.
I love the wall quilt!
What wonderful projects. Although I have to say, my fave is the someone to watch over you quilt.
Thanks for posting pics from the book! Looks like a bunch of lovely projects. I love the pencil roll (is that by Kathy of Pink Chalk Studio??) and the elephant!
Eye candy! Is a German translation of the book in progress? I'd be interested to participate. and to feature it for the Mid-European market(Germany,Switzerland,Austria, France, Benelux).
and thanks for your visits to my blog :-)
-Claudine, yes the pencil roll is by Pink Chalk Studio.
-Qusic, not sure if they publish the book in German.
Oh my gosh, you lucky dog! (which is what my friends and I used to exclaim as kids when one of us lucked out) I can't believe you got an advanced copy! But you're so kind to quench our curiosity by posting pics...it all looks very inspiring.
Eek! I'm SO excited for this book to come out, and thank you so much for the sneak peak! I'm even more excited now!

I have to ask...is that darling little white puppy yours?
Oh! I just checked out your sewing category and see that little cutie is your dog! He's a bit of a chihuahua, right?
-mom2fur, yes Napoleon is half Chihuahua (his dad). His mom is a Lhasa Apso/Pomeranian.
