THANKS all for the lovely compliments. The memory quilt is actually "Lucky Stars" from Atkins patterns. I just substitue the kiddos pic for the center of the star. The pinwheel quilt came from: http://twiddletails.blogspot.com/
It's a 'quilt along'....

Thanks again for all of the lovely compliments. I had LOTS of fun too! :)

I always 'heat set' them, but have noticed one of Noah's older brother's quilt has faded some. I now use "Printed Treasures" sheets though, and I think these last better. Thanks!

Thank you for some inspiration. I need to make a family picture wall hanging and was not sure how I would do it. This quilt gave me an idea. Thank you again, Sandi

Both are beautiful. I think the boy's quilt with the little feet included is magnificent. I really like the bright colors on white in the pinwheel quilt.
