Judith....her books are costly and since it may be awhile before you start yours, your decision makes sense and grandbabies smiles are more important. Just so you know, the Happy Flowers pattern book is in my Amazon shopping cart right now. I have't clicked the "purchase" button yet. Lol... I, also, have a another pattern book called Animal Attraction in the shopping cart. Have you seen this book? Farm and safari animals that are so darn cute. I'm trying to not be ridiculous in pattern purchases but I'm weak. I think I'm being very disciplined but I know they are just sitting there waiting for me. Lol... Lordy.. I need to stop surfing.
We are having a family reunion (our first) next year in Alabama and I am making a quilt to give as a prize. I thought about making a family tree that everyone can sign a leaf and then I saw Lori Holt's Family Reunion applique quilt. It's a darling pattern. I'm still undecided on what to make yet. I may just give my GTSB quilt. Any suggestions are welcome.
