Great quilt and fantastic label. When my daughter, who expressed no interest in sewing whatsoever, was going off to college she wanted to make a charm quilt to take with her. Granted she was home with chicken pox her Sr. year - bad timing, but she was bored. I set her up with a sheet on the wall to organize the charms, told her how to go row by row, etc. I came home to find she had somehow managed to sew the charms together with a big hole in the middle. I un-sewed parts of it, she rearranged again, and I finished quilting it a week after she left for college. I only just told her that she had 2 charms from the same fabric, but she'd never noticed. Maybe I shouldn't have told her. She still has it - has moved many times and it comes with her every time, so I know it means a lot to her.

love the label. I just have an inexpensive sewer/embroidery machine by brother (under $250)

I make and give away dolls to sick kids (most with cancer) and a lady sent me a sweet little 4 line verse (about 8 of them) and I sewed the embroidered cloth unto the front of the dress.

Should have saved one to remember exactly.

It said something about,
Read me a story, kiss me goodnight and tuck me in bed.

Read better then that, but I forgot exactly what it said.

here's my website...doesn't show the labels on the examples, and those dolls have already been sent out.

if it doesn't download, add in:

hope you enjoy the website. I just sent out dolls 152 and 153.
