    Adorable quilt. So bright and cheerful and of course, coupled with the books it's a wonderful gift.

    This is a great idea for a child's quilt. Nicely done.

    Every year I make kid's quilts for Santa's Helpers and include a stuffed animal and book. I feel it may encourage kids to read - so important.

    Eric Carle is my favorite kids' author. I love The Very Hungry Caterpillar the best. I read his books over and over again to my kids when they were young. I really like your quilt and was hoping that you would be giving the book with the same Carle theme to the granddaughters also. And you are! Yay! My three kids all turned out to be voracious readers due to all the book reading I did to them from the moment they could sit up. Thanks for showing this great kid's quilt!
