I have always had quilts in my life, my grandmother and mother-in-law made lots of them over the years, but the thing that really got me into it was the fact that Mom always made every new baby in the family a flannel tie quilt, she believed that every newborn deserved this gift. Mom was taken from our family by cancer, but I wanted the tradition of baby quilts to family members to live on so I became the one who goes to every baby shower with a flannel tie quilt as a gift. But I just couldn't stop there so many fabrics and patterns and so little time :lol:
