I made my first quilt in 1973. It was for my 3 yr old daughter whose "blankie" was falling apart. Someone had given me some large bright polyester squares. I sewed them together and put her "blankie" on the inside. I used a sheet for the backing and tied it. She is 40 now, and still has the quilt. Her kids have used it and it is falling apart. I've offered to fix it for her, but she loves it the way it is! Sorry, don't have a picture and she lives in Colorado.
