Hi all:
I know how much we all love pictures so I figured I would post these for you all to see. I made each one of my grandson's a quilt for Christmas last year. They are 4, 7 and 10 years old. They all loved their quilts and the best was when each one said thank you and told me what they each liked best about their quilt. It was so much fun to listen to them. I am going to visit in July, God willing, and I am bringing each of them a specially designed, by Mammie (that is what they call me) pillow sham to match their quilts. So here they are, starting with the youngest's.

This is for the youngest, Austin, he loves cars and trucks.

This is for the oldest grandson, James, he wanted Scooby Doo but the fabric was not available when I was buy for the quilts. He loves his dinosaur quilt and he loves music so I did a Disco Dinosaur, LOL.

This is for my middle one, Christian, he still loves his bugs.

Gee thank you to everyone for your nice comments. Yes girls, I like the bugs too. I love all the colors.
When I mailed their quilts to them I sprayed the paper I wrapped them with in my perfume and my wonderful daughter-in-law said they were so cute when they opened them. They all said, wow they smell like Mammie. I know they are going to love these and I promised to buy them each a new pillow when I come to see them. I can not wait to see them all. I miss them so much.

I like the idea of using your perfume!!! I bet they all had big smiles on their faces, too :D :D :D You are quite a distance from them, do you get to visit with them very often?
