Hello all,
I am a newbie and have been "lurking" drooling over all of the wonderful quilts! What a gifted group of folks you all are. I finished this quilt for my grand daughter and thought I would share. It is called Rosebud. Appropriate I thought as she is such a sweet baby. I did not quilt it - maybe her next one lol. I wanted her mother to be comfortable letting Emily take the quilt where ever she liked. Well here goes lol

Your quilt is great. I have made quilts for each of my granddaughters too--I wanted them to be used. I call them "drag around quilts" and they are well loved.

Your quilt is beautiful! I agree with you about a "dragging around" quilt. I make my quilts to be used, not to sit on a shelf somewhere. If they wear out, then I have an excuse to make more!
