Sweet Revenge and Projects of 2008:-)

This is BETH posting some creative projects from my daughter’s *PRIVATE* (for now) blog. So most of these are NOT my own !!! A little Sweet revenge;-)

Since she felt entitled to shamelessly blog about my derriere, (here) I felt I was entitled to pilfer her crafty goods;-) What goes around comes around! Really I just wanted to share some of my wonderful daughter's talents and projects she did this year!;-)

A favorite project of hers was this great dresser found in the thrifty ads...

which became a beautiful piece of furniture to store all her fabrics in.

She redid this furniture (sorry, no before picture) for her new daughter's nursery and made this sweet little quilt as part of a darling crib set.

I love how she converted this vintage little desk into a delightful little changing table

This ugly duckling was declined when first offered...

until she envisioned this beauty,

and wonderful game organizer,

For their kids playroom.

This chest was being sent to a thrift store after the passing of her grandmother. It was in great condition and had great bones. Natalie once again saw it's potential.

She turned it into this beauty with spray paint:)
It doesn't even look like the same dresser! Then we both did some similar chair projects. This is her before ...

And the after for her cute her craft room.
This is my before...
The after for my future craft room chair was inspired from Ashley at Domestic Fashionista project.

Then a young friend of hers was diagnosed with breast cancer and she quilted this beautiful quilt for her to take along for her Chemo treatments.
She also referenced her friend's favorite verse which she says gives her great comfort
.
"And whoso receiveth you, there I will be also, for I will go before your face. I will be on your right hand and on your left hand, and my spirit shall be in your hearts, and mine angels round about you, to bear you up."

Her friend said her friends have truly been her angels.

We both decided to both do the Summer Stash challenge last year and make a quilt from the fabrics we already had at home. LOL!!! I didn't have any... I didn't know quite what I was signing up for. Her quilt turned out so lovely, The colors are so soft and light with a soft pink mink fabric on the bottom. My 6 year old granddaughter sleeps with this each night.

Hers turned out to be is one of my all time favorite quilts.

This is MY quilt from the challenge of only using fabrics I already had....which was next to NOTHING!!!!! I had to be really creative to make this work. So using an emergency red micro fleece blanket from the trunk of our car and some old jeans, we have a warm cuddly quilt .

I learn so much from my daughter. She is witty, talented and constantly surprises and inspires me. Since I only had one daughter, I am so glad I got the best! I have received three fabulous DIL who also inspire me:)
