    Default Bento Box for DGD

    DGD chose these colors a year ago. And that is how long it has taken to finish her quilt and pillows. Life got in the way when DH was diagnosed with Heart Failure. In the past year he has had 4 surgeries, 10 hospital visits for a total of 30 days, and required constant care. He is doing much better now thank God, and I have finally been able to finish this in time for DGD's 8th birthday. The quilt is a large twin, and there are 5 throw pillows and a standard pillow case. Quilt is backed with fleece, there is no batting, and it's quilted SID every 6 inches. Shown on my king bed.

    Your DGD did a great job picking out fabrics for her quilt, it looks great. Sorry your DH was so ill, but glad to read he is doing better. I bet your DGD will be thrilled to finally get her quilt.
