I finished the baby quilt about 4 weeks ago and it has just been sitting here waiting for the label. I made the label on Saturday and sewed it on the quilt tonight.
This is for my DH's BFF who lives in Colorado and is a Fireman/Paramedic. He turned 48 a couple weeks before his first born, a son, was born in Nov. Craig is only a month or so younger than me. I could not imagine starting a family at my age. My kids are already grown up. Anyway his wife is only 37 so......

A close of of the label
Oh, the pattern for this quilt and the other one I posted is called Bits and Pieces. It is a really fast and easy fat quarter quilt with 9 inch blocks and I have made a bunch of these cause I can whip them up real fast for gifts.

Don't worry about ages when it comes to starting a family...
My Dads' first child was born when he was 28, then 30 then the next one (me) at 51 and my younger brother at 56.
Only bad thing was/is that I do not know my oldest brother and sister but know my nieces and nephews like they were my siblings...
Makes for a strange family dynamic...but we are what we are.
