    My Granddaughter gave her friend the Baby Hopscotch quilt I made for her Baby 3-14. She thought her friend was going to cry when she saw it. She was blown away by the beauty of it. She said the colors are the colors used in the Baby's room and it is too pretty to use. She said it will hang on the wall and no one is going to touch it. I made it to be used but, I gave it away and it is up to her to use it as she sees fit. I'm just glad she likes it.

    Doesn't that just make it so worth it when someone loves your work so much?? And I can see why!! Your quilt is very pretty. I hope she lets her daughter use it at some point!! :) :)

    Wow - best compliment you could ever get. And hanging on the wall is a good thing too. She will admire it every time she walks into the room.

    That is so sweet - love the colors. I'm glad the recipient loved it so much. Makes it all worthwhile, doesn't it?
