A small quilt and a whole lot of Underwear

Can you tell I am not much into titles? Or posting ... apparently- I am so behind on posting... yada yada yada... 

I made this little guy for fun. I really wanted to try the whole triangle thing. But not enough to want to do something huge. So this is another scrap quilt. I just used what I had on hand, minus the backing. I am not even sure what the end dimensions were... Guessing somewhere in the 30x40 inch area. 
 It was a lot of fun but if I did it bigger the  triangles could not be this small! 
 It found a home with an adorable new little boy and his family. 

So underwear... I can not believe how expensive and cheap feeling kids underwear is (at least what I found) Add to that I do not want cartoon graphics all over them... really... I know I am so boring! 
So when Susan from Crafterhours posted about making her girls underwear I decided to go ahead and try it out. 
The pattern is from Kitschycoo and  I am very happy with how easily they came together and  the fit looks like it should be very comfortable. 

2.5 yards of Jersey knit made 11 pairs of underwear and 2 oliver and s dresses in size 12-18 months. That is roughly $28 in material (including the underwear pattern which goes to size 6).
Not sure that this will be helpful to any of you, but there it is.
