I made this quilt 36 yrs ago for my oldest son, he was 4 at the time. Forgot I had it until I needed an extra quilt for one of the grandkids who stayed overnight. Glad I found it.

please ignore the date on the camera, can't seem to get it off or changed. Anyway, each of the hats have the name of one of his cousins on it.

Your quilt is adorable, if your son has a child, how nice it would be to give it to them. Thanks for sharing.

He has 5 children, but they are a bit old for this quilt, he does however have a granddaughter who just turned 1 today, think that is where this quilt will go.

I am looking all over my house for embroderied squares I did when pregnant with my son who will be 50 in March. i thought I could find it and finish it and give it to him for his birthday. He would get a kick out of it.
