Jerrie,
Your quilt is just too cute! Lots and lots of fun!
May I ask (I'm going to anyway!) How did you make the faces on your little boys? What technique? Need to know so I can file it away with the other "tricks of the trade" so to speak!
Keep up the great work and keep posting your pics.

Jerrie,
Thanks for the input. I like to do embroidery also. I'm very impressed with your work. The faces look as if they've been drawn with a fine point sharpie!
