A couple years ago I made a little crib quilt for a baby at church. His Mom didn't want anything not all boy, so I designed a patchwork with applique of construction vehicles for the quilt and matching bumper pads.
This week the family is out of state on vacation, and they sent a pic of the little boy, with the quilt he won't sleep without.
I was really pleased to see it is holding up, and that it is so loved. It makes all the hard work worth it, to see that smiling face.
