You're a great neighbor to have, and I'm sure that the kids will love their new "blankies".

How sweet you are to think of them. I'm sure every time they cuddle up with their blanket they will think of you and your generosity. Bless you. Your gift will not go unnoticed.

Of course I had none and he lost interest in the whole idea. The other 2 picked out some things they liked and I got ideas for color. Next time I was in JoAnn's I saw Buzz Lightyear and had to buy some. So now I am ready to give them their "back to school blankets". I used some stash and some new for all and I hope they love them as much as i enjoyed this project.

if i look in your window will you make me something too?!! : ))

If you are as cute as these 3 I will! Their parents are always telling them not to do it but I love to be working away at something and then realize someone is calling my name. Look out the window and there they are waving away. I have a tiny deck up stairs and they usually get me out there to talk and have a quick break. Love em!

I love these quilts! I am brand new at quilting and have a zillion questions. i like the pattern you used…no angles:) It looks like everything was square…any tips? I am going to try one like this for my daughter.
