    If you have an embroidery machine anything with her name on it will be a hit.

    I agree - do a wholecloth quilt with stippling - simple, easy, and fun! I love stippling.

    I agree with the pillow case...take 20 minutes to make and she will have something new to fall asleep on after a busy day.

    kids always have stuff to carry, just a quick bag would be wonderful.

    That's what I'd do!!! Actually, I've done that several times when I needed something quick! :oops: They are loved just as much if you took days and days to put something together! Perhaps you could make her another quilt specially designed for her for a special birthday (13th maybe?). :-)

    I agree. Make it the center of the quilt and border it with something to make it pop.

    Any little girl would love that material. I like the border idea but a pillow case would be much quicker. No matter what you choose, she'll love it.
