As good as any adult would do. And she'll always remember it as the quilt SHE made.

I made a quilt with my grandmother when I was about 4 or 5, (back in the 1940's) I would give ANYTHING today if I had that little quilt. However, i will always remember the joy of making it with my grandma! Your GD will always remember this experience. Hope she is able to keep it forever!

No, she's giving it to a little newborn baby boy at our church but we will make some more quilts together, as she gets a little older, quilts she can keep. One of the next ones, in the new year, will be for her dolly!!!

Well done grandma. You are helping to encourage a future quilter and you ended up with a pretty quilt.
