I finished the gifts just in time....

 Chantal's baby shower was Saturday and it when very well!  She was tired but very happy and excited with all of the friends and gifts.  Here is the cake that was made by Chantal's grade school teacher for her shower. 
I finished up my sewing at around midnight Friday night!  LOL!  Nothing like waiting until the last minute to finish things.  Here are the gifts that I made for baby Addison.  

First up...the puff/bubble quilt...
 I made 25 hair bows!  I bought this hair bow holder at Hobby Lobby 50% off and it cost me $8.  It worked out well to clip the hair bows on. 
 Modern 4-patch flip backed with minkee. 
 Colorful Scraps quilt made with pindot fabrics.
 Pink polka dot Chevron quilt....
 10 Flannel burp cloths... 
55 suckers!!!!  These were party favors.  :)
 It was a great day!  We had lots of fun with friends and family.  She got a ton of wonderful gifts!  She has 7 more weeks to go!!!!   In the end, Chantal, mom and I were all exhausted!  LOL!  Now that I have all of this baby stuff finished up I can get back to working on something that is NOT PINK!  LOL!  I would like to finish assembling my bow tie top but, today I will try to finish painting the nursery!  :)

I do believe you must have gotten out of the house to go to the party so the weather must have cleared up at least a little bit for you - it looks like Chantal got a lot of nice things for baby

That cake is a hoot! The owl on top matches your puff quilt owls so well. Did you coordinate?
You have spoiled Chantal with baby gifts--in a good way! What a sweet sister you are. My goodness, I have another grandchild coming in a couple of months and seeing all of this I feel like I should get cracking!! : )

I can tell that this baby will be well-loved! The quilts are all wonderful and it sounds like the shower was a huge success! I found out over the weekend that we're getting a new grandbaby - very excited!
