    I was so happy when my SIL told me how much my niece loves her Minnie Mouse quilt/pillow case I made for her. Considering all the other cross-stitched projects I have made for that family are MIA!

    I have 5 gks each of who have at least 3 quilts. My 4 yr old in paticular has at least 5 or 6. When we were there last time he brought me his favorite quilt wrapped around him. I asked if I could take a picture of it with him and he turned in a circle and said yep. He just kept it on and turned a little for the picture. When were there for his b-day I was ambushed at the door and then each person that came in he brought over and introduced us to them saying this is "my grandma and grandpa". It was a little embarassing when the people he brought over were his other grandparents. I do know just how important I am to him hence I will never stop quilting for my grandbabies!

    When my granddaughter returned to Base, she made her bed with the quilt and pillow cases I made her and sent pictures to us. She said this is the Christmas tree Mom sent me and the awsome quilt Grammy made me.

    You might use the smallest rotary cutter to do the clipping. Lay the edge you need to clip flat on your mat with your ruler on the place where you want the slit to end and proceed to cut. When I do this I use a larger seam allowance...nearly an inch.

    My son (44) told me today that the Brickyard rag flannel quilt I made him for this Christmas is warm (we have just had a cold snap)and fits him just fine (he is 6'3"). He said some of his friends want one too - I told him that his friends better be prepared for sticker shock!
