I made three quilts for a benefit where their parents died....2 girls and 1 boy. My step-sister in law is baby sitting the younger, who is not quit 2, and its a girl. I am told this little girl LOVES her quilt. She HAS to have it at the sitters or she wont take her nap. she plays with it and likes to flip both sides, feels it and giggles...just wont let it go while she is there. I guess She decided it has to stay there. I just made me cry to know that someone that little loves something a complete stranger gave her.

I can't post pics...my browser just keeps freezing. don't know why. Sorry all!


I just had to share that

That is wonderful to hear when your quilt is loved that much by another.

Nothing better than to hear that our work is so appreciated. You've done a great thing for these children and you'll be blessed time and again for your gifts to them.

My friend told me that her grandson who has a quilt I gave him for his birthday would not let a visiting little boy use HIS quilt to take a nap because it was special made just for him! awwwahhh!

You're definitely a quilt angel in those young children's lives!!! I know their quilts are giving them some much needed comfort.

Thank you for thinking of this little girl. I am sure she will appreciate every kindness that comes her way.

I honestly think that quilts can be magic. Maybe the love that is put into them stays there, I really do not know. But I know that quilts can make a real connection.
