I call them my babies because each one takes me so long to produce! I always make quilts with the intended reciever in mind, picking and choosing fabric and agonizing over every choice. But in the end I know its just what I wanted and will fit the person to a T. I love all my babies!

They aren't a traditional quilt pattern and they aren't art quilts. I didn't know what catagory to put them in, so I made my own catagory, story quilts.

What do you call the types of quilts that you do?

I call that type of quilt a "quilt"...LOL :D I mean really; that is what makes a quilt so special is that usually they are made with feeling. Either they are for someone, about someone, of a reflection of someone. Otherwise we would call them blankets :lol:
