What can i say other than they are so lucky to receive these. I can see by them all being different, that they are definitely different ages and sexes. You have gone to a lot of trouble to make them to suit that person. Well done. I hope they do appreciate all the time and effort, never mind the hours and hours and costs, that have gone into them.

Very spoilt. I hope you will be there when they open their gifts and share in their enjoyment. :thumbup:

It's "Confetti" from the book StrataVarious Quilts but I changed the size of the blocks to make it go faster. If this looks like you I'm guessing you are a wonderful, happy, bright woman!
