At this late date, I'm quickly making another one that is of Robots. I got a surprise when she innocently informed me that she had decorated her room in Robots and space stuff.
So the Robot quilt will go to her, first ice cone quilt will go to other daughter then the second ice cone quilt (minus the felt, sigh, will also go to teacher daughter.)
Just because both sisters are a little bit over the half century mark doesn't mean that you can make something for one and not get the other one something like it!!! Just like when they were 5 and 6 years old.....the other one heard from another family member what her sister was getting, and wanted one for her grandkids to cuddle up in when they visited her!!!!
I wonder when they will grow up?????? If ever.

is the felt wool or acrylic? i have used wool felt in many projects they hold up well through all kinds of abuse and will still look good years from now...the acrylic felt tends to disintergrate with time (it is usually called craft felt and not meant for washable projects) wool felt and wool felt blends (like those put out by marcus brothers) hold up well and are great to work with
