These are a few pictures of quilts I have made for grandies over the last couple of years. The two older boys were born before I got the 'bug' so they didn't get baby ones.....
It is always such fun planning and deciding what to make .... and I like to use the opportunity to try out new techniques and ideas....

ReplyDeleteMy grandkids have treasured quilts that their great grandma made for them, she's made quilts for all of her great grandys but has now hung up her fabrics and cutters and no longer is able to make them, I suppose this grandma is going to have to get the quilting bug if ever there is any more babies.
ReplyDeleteIt must be really special making quilts for your grandchildren.

Love the ultra sound photo... make sure you keep it in a very safe place... as when my middle daughter turned 21 last year I used it in her memory quilt that I made her... everyone was just amazed at that photo being kept and managing to make it so clear on the fabric... a future quilt for you to consider xxx
