A few ladies have PM'ed me about the picture on my profile. I found the quilt in an antique store and it followed me home! It's the first quilt I have ever bought! I don't even know why I bought it! Our only child is 14 and he hates the quilt! But I thought it might be a cute wall hanging anyway!
I found out that a kit was put out by Better Homes and Gardens by P & M Creations. It is called "When I Grow Up". It is machine appliquéd and hand-quilted. It has white backing.

That is an absolutely adorable quilt. Your child may not like it, but perhaps as he get older, he will learn to appreciate it for it's age and unusual quality. This is not your "everyday" kind of quilt. I love it. I also would have wanted to buy this one. Such sentimental value, even if you did not make it yourself. Someone surely had a soft heart.

You don't know why you bought it .... there's no question as to why!!!!!!!!!

That's been one lot of work ... and something for YOU to enjoy.
