    And for sure ......... you are unforgettable, with all your intricate detailed work.
    For anyone who wonders .... stalk the Lady and see what she did in the past for those 4 DGS's before this sweet little bundle of pink (now a busy active young lady!)
    I did! Went through all her posts looking for the grocery store quilt....with no success!! Please tell us more about this one! And did you, Granny, get the pattern from Australia Kookaburra or the other quilt shop mentioned, Shabby Fabrics? I went there too but couldn't find the pattern there.

    I saw the Monkey quilt--wonderful as is the little boy who received it! What else couldn't I find? And thank you for posting more info and pics of this quilt...you are amazing!

    Here you are ....
    The Store ....
    http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...cs-t85519.html

    This one tells you about how she miniaturized some of the items ....
    http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...re-t83432.html

    But don't stop there, as there are lots of other threads while she was making the fruits, vegetables, baked goods, etc. to fill those shelves!

    And keep going, as you will not be disappointed in looking at all of Granny_59's other work. In particular look at her mini dresden plates .... and mini quilts, all in one quilt .... and the bears tucked into beds. Oh yes .... you will not be disappointed in making time for this journey thru her accomplishments!



    Granny_59 ... oh my, that was fun as I went back thru your threads! A lot of memories as I looked again at all those special things you have made. And to think you have only been quilting five years! WOW!!!!!!!!!!!

    It sounds like you have some very lucky grand children and a DGD who will be the envy of all her friends. You have placed so much love into the quilt that I'm sure it will be loved by all.

    What a perfect way to start my day! Thank you all so much!!

    @Pollytink. I got the pattern as a whole set from Shabby fabrics but this was a while ago......... Sophie on this thread mentioned that she ordered one herself, maybe she can help.

    As for my dearest friend QuiltE. Please let me assure you all that she neither got instructions nor Money to brag like that on my behalf. lol
