I've been working on a couple of vintage patterns lately.  I 'm not having the greatest luck with either of them.  One is a precious baby dress with a dress coat.  So far I'm only trying the dress.  I'll see how that goes before I try the coat.  The other is a relatively simple (or so I thought) pattern with a zipper and little gathered cap sleeves.

 I am also trying a little lap quilt from Amy Karol's Bend the Rules Sewing book.  I'm thinking of quilting each strip before putting it together rather than doing it all at once.
