    My 25 year old son came through while I was looking at your pictures (again). He stopped and asked what they were...then he said "Wait. Is that a ruler by the squares?" He couldn't believe they were only 6" long. He was amazed, and he never hardly comments on my quilting. He really appreciated and noticed yours!

    Beautiful! Your bears quilt inspired me to design an "Napping Kittens" quilt - still in process, though!

    They are beautiful, and the bear quilt. The mini's must have been a real test of patience.
    Seeing yours made me remember I made a simple 9 patch alternating with applique bears in pretty pastels three years ago for my then new great grand-daughter. Sadly their home burned on Friday night and they have lost everything. I will have to get busy and make new quilts for my Lexie and her four step-siblings. Sorry to diverge, feeling a bit raw at moment,

    Sorry to hear about the fire; I assume the family made it out ok. Thank goodness.

    I wish I had the coordination to do something so small. One of my DIL collects miniature doll house things and she was saying that those quilts go for far more money than she could ever afford! I can see why since they are so small!
