Default Quilt of Long ago

Circa 1986: My dd asked me to make her a New Quilt when she was 4 yrs old (now 33). Didn't like the baby ones she was still using. SO we went to the store and she picked out Pinks & Browns. I made a simple Rail Fence to get it done quickly. Back then I hand quilted everything. It's still in my closet, along with another sampler quilt I made for her about Jr Hs age. Of course she now has more adult looking quilts for her & her hubby. AND a couple for their daughter (age 3) I've been quilting for almost as long as I can remember, in some form. Grandma & her side of the house made sure I knew how to do all the domestic needleworks. I'm almost 68 and quilting is still my passion.

The Pink/Green/Gray blocks will be for my soon to be born new grand daughter Olivia. Can't wait. Her folks have quilts too.

p.s. I made the Stick Horse too. lOL
