    The quilt is a treasure! Since when is it OCD to plan ahead?

    It's beautiful, and I'd much rather think of you as being fully prepared! lol

    I love, love this idea...I am about to have my first grandchild any parents have 15 grandchildren and my MOM use to make incredible crochet blankets. She no longer can make them and wishes she had made more baby ones for the future great grandkids. I love you idea of wedding quilts for the future...I am going to do the same...

    Beautiful !!!!! How are you going to keep the grands out of the closet? They may be rushing into marriage just to get such a beautiful quilt - lol. Just kidding but something to think about....

    It looks great! Just be sure to label the quilts that you make ahead so you don't forget!

    This is an extension of the tradition whereby young girls would make items for the own marriage before they had even started dating. It is a good idea for time consuming projects!

    I am knitting a textured cotton baby blanket for no one in particular. It is taking me so long that it might turn out to be for my grandchild- I reckon I have a bout 20 years to get it done- should be nearly enough!
