One of my cousin has three girls I had never met before last year. So when I was going to be in her neck of the woods, I decided to make the kids something so they wouldn't forget me. I also finished these up on a work-trip last December.

Tell me what you think. I am considering doing them again.

The youngest one is only 6, so I opted for a lot of color-I won't use 2-1/2" squares again

The middle girl is 9-this pattern spoke to me

For the oldest girl- I used half of my remaining BOM's

They are all so pretty. I love the 2½" blocks the best! Wonderful gifts.

All three are great, but I really love the first one. I've never seen a quilt done in that type of a pattern before, and just may have to make one!

I'll be your relative to receive one of your quilts. Wonderful quilts and great job on all of them. They will be very loved, I'm sure.

It is not nearly as bad in a 4-1/2" square with sashing. I made another one with this size block, same color and it worked up in no time-compared to the 400-block montage you see there!
