Hi! I wish I had better way to display the quilts I've worked but when there's nothing else coat hangers and mega wood clamps work just fine. Learned a neat trick: to get the quilt straight and flat, its clamped to a yard stick.
Anyway I had loads of fun working on this baby quilt. I used all nine pages of the cloth book panel, cut apart and trimmed down the blocks to 9-1/4".
I don't remember who mentioned taking the cloth books and making quilts out of them, but I sure appreciate it. I have a unique Christmas gift to give my grand-nephew. Take care, Chris

How cute is that!!!? I love this idea and a nice use for these cloth books. I just found 3 of the panels at the thrift store last week. Will make one for a friend's granddaughter, and the other two for my grands. But not before Christmas! LOL

Question ... When you bought this panel was there one page with the dotted line down the center ?? If so what did you do?
