Thanks Sulabug I did this a couple of years ago for my son and DDIL and they loved it. So did my 3 grandsons.

Thanks for the info. I do not remember the name but picked it because it the center was just right for putting in the photos
Thank you for the kudos. I loved doing this quilt. It was so much fun to put together. It is the one that really got me to love quilting, been doing it ever since. Quilting inspires the painter in me. I paint in oils and have done portraits of all 3 of my grandsons. Quilting is like painting with fabric. That and stained glass does the same thing for me. Maybe I will post some of my work sometime.

Thank you for the compliment. My 3 babies loved it too. They loved picking out their photos.
Never noticed before but on the close up of the hand quilting, which by the way did not show up that well, I can not believe what a manicure I needed, LOL :lol:
