    Oh, this is SO precious! What a wonderful, new grandmother you are! She's lucky to have you...as lucky as you are to have her, I'm sure.

    Beautiful quilt! I'm going to have to find that pattern somewhere....I know a little granddaughter of my own who would simply ADORE this quilt :) She's my girly-girl...and so special to me (she is also a special needs child, so really special in multiple ways!).

    Great job!

I give these for birthday gifts and for Bingo, Wedding shower games, etc.
    Do you have any pics??

    I have been making casserole carriers out of placemats, pot holders, aprons, pillowcase dresses and monograming names on pillow cases. I find aprons to be the most popular gift.

    I'm making table toppers, and pot holders, which I'm going to practice meandering quilting on before I quilt my grandson's quilt he is getting for Christmas.

    This thread is making me soooo nervous. It's making me stare at reality and reminds me that Christmas will be here before we know it, AND I WON'T BE READY! :O)
