    Chele you are as creative as ever. What a great quilt! Everything I remember from living there; bugs, beaches, sweet fresh fruit, golfers, frogs and Mickey!

    Lol! Is the top left block a reference to Universal Studios? I visit family in Orlando and I've found a memory for each block in your doll quilt except that one, great quilt! I esp love the peanuts, reminds me of the roadside stands everywhere! Love bugs.... yech...

    KellyK, that's my space center reference. My dad worked at NASA and was on the space shuttle recovery team. Both of my kids work at Universal, so I should have included those references. Thanks for all the love!
