I made an all-gingham quilt in 1980 when I was expecting our first child. Both our babies used it and my daughter used it with her two kiddos. It's still in use, but mostly as an oversized doll quilt now . Obviously that gingham has held up well!

I made a crib quilt using gingham several years ago when Dan River gingham was plentiful. It was well-loved and went through many washings. It finally "died" when my son used it for window coverings in his tree house. An estate sale find had a stash of gingham which I am turning into a yo-yo quilt for summer --- another UFO. Making enough yo-yos got real tedious!

I have used a LOT of gingham over the years making baby and toddler quilts. As far as I know, they are all still alive and well. (The quilts, NOT referring to the kids...)
