Last month my 9 yr old granddaughter called to tell me that she was still using the crib quilt I made for her. "But, Grandma, it's too small for my bed!". Now, is that a hint or not? And, of course, she wanted it yesterday. So I decided on a Double Irish Chain - 1.) because I love the pattern and 2.) because it's so quick and easy. Because she's 9 I didn't want anything too youthful and wanted something that would grow with her. So, I used her favorite colors and quilted butterflies on it to add just a bit of whimsy. I'll deliver it today and will expect a call from my grandson tomorrow.

sounds like you have a future quilter here!! You need to start her off with learning to help you make the next one. If she's not nearby, take a trip!!
