I love this. I have to share my story of well loved quilts. I made small quilts for all of my nieces and nephews who are now getting married and having their own families. One of my nieces requested a quilt for her baby girl just like the one I made for her. When I asked her mom (my sister) which quilt I had made she said, that thing wore out cause she dragged it everywhere!! I still don't know which one I made her but together we came up with what my niece remembered. :) That one will be well used also. I didn't start taking pictures of my quilts until the nineties. Darn. :)
BTW: I have 34 nieces and nephews. I make alot of baby quilts! |
It says it all wonderfully

Bookmarked. That is just what I say to people. Where are you from?

Thank you all for the kind words, I am so glad you like the poem and please feel free to use it !
I am from Dover Plains, NY Susanna10 ! |
I love this label and I did change it a little. I hope SlightlyOffQuilter doesn't mind.
Please don't put me in the closet, or save me just for guests. I am just a simple covering, to be used like all the rest. You see I was not made, to be a work of art. I was made to keep you warm you see, made with love right from the start. My creator made me sturdy, so I could take all the abuse, that she hopes will come to me, from years of daily use. Take me on a picnic Or let’s lay out and look for shooting stars. Let the baby play on me With dolls or trucks or cars. Put me in the washer, just keep the cycle gentle. Then toss me in the dryer, it won't be detrimental. Just remember that our favorite things, those things that we hold dear, are not the ones we hide away, they are the ones that we keep near.

Beautiful! I love it! I would use it and give you credit, but I don't label my quilts. I don't take photos and I haven't a clue as to the number I made over the years. I make them all for babies and give them all away. It's great fun!
