I was practically jumping for joy when I reached the part where your daughter asked you to make her a quilt.

I'm glad, in time, she came to her senses. I figured I'd go the cheap and easy way, and first bought a Target blanket for my son. When the teacher said it was too large, I gave in and made a Minky blanket that doesn't begin to compare with your daughter's quilt. I was still afraid of how it would fair in an elementary classroom floor. I love the prints you chose, making it a bit like a picture book, with the shimmery metallics, cute illustrations, and phrases. The other moms are in trouble now. All the little girls are going to want one of these, and no amount of K-mart spending is going to enable that.

It is so hard for a quilter to contemplate buying those awful low-quality overseas sweat shop "quilts" sold in big box stores. You should be proud of your daughter for coming around so quickly and realizing that REAL quilts are made at home, with love in every stitch!Rebecca Gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14801489818836195754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-694760279089599732.post-28667770290152851012016-07-21T18:26:42.282+08:002016-07-21T18:26:42.282+08:00This picture of the little girl with the blanket w...This picture of the little girl with the blanket would make anyone happy.

I desperately want nap time in my life too now if it might mean a quilt as lovely as this. I also desperately want some of the fabric with the 'do not faint' quote. Paperie, right?
