Quilts are just lovely. Kids look over joyed with them. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, I used batting as the flannel was more on the thin side.

LOL ~ this was one of those "happy accidents". The blocks were pieced from scraps I had in my stash & there was not enough of any of the blues to make all of the blocks so I had to find a way to make it all flow.

I love your idea of camping quilts. Both are very nicely done! I like that you changed the position on the sun, and even made a moon, in the quilt with the tent. Thanks for sharing.

I thougt the same thing when I saw it. Those happy faces are what it's all about! Thanks for the pattern link - I really like that one and saved it to pdf for future reference.

Oh I am dying...you let them camp with them?? All that work for camping in the dirt?? Maybe I'm too much of a neat freak.

Glad you are letting them enjoy them and do what they want with them!!

You're a good grandma!
