Flat Stanley is a great idea to get children to read and learn about other parts of the country. I ran a gift shop on a plantation and had many visits from Flat Stanley over the years. I was even in some of the photos !

we took our DGD flat Stanley on our trip to Europe, it was so much fun, at the airport, on the plain and then taking pictures where ever we went
love your quilt

Wow, that Flat Stanley sure has been decked out! Cute quilt. My middle-school age daughter didn't have a Flat Stanley but there was a teddy bear that got sent around for people to embellish it with something (a button or badge or jewelry) and send it along. He got lost shortly after he hit my aunt in Dallas. He was eventually found but it was way after the class project was over. I think that is so rude of people to not move it along.

What a great idea! Flat Stanley came to visit us when my DGD was in 3rd grade (she is now a college grad) and we took him all over the place. Up until now I have felt we did the best job but you beat me hands down!

Oh my! I have never heard of the flat Stanley either. What an adorable idea you have to make him into a quilt! The little one will just be tickled that you went to these extremes for them!

This is adorable - what a keep-sake to have.
