    I made quilts for my 3 grandchildren for Christmas - finished the last one about an hour ago. The first one is for my 9 year-old DGS - my daughter wanted something that he could use for a while.
    The pink butterflys is for my 7-year-old DGD - she loves butterflys & rainbows - all fabric is "sparkly".
    The princesses is for my 5 year-old DGD who loves purple. most of her fabric is sparkly too. the girls sahre a room so I used the same backing on theirs.

    Need help with names for them. Suggestions?

    Sometimes it is fun to hear what the children would call them. Nice job!
