    Are you going to wait for them to come or are you sending it over to them? If he was 2 years old in the first post - that means he is around 4 now, if they don't come for another 2 years he will be around 6 years old by the time you see him.

    Perfect is boring. Who wants perfection? Your quilt is charming and lovely.

    That's a lovely quilt - I like the 3D effects with the frog head popping out, the wing of the plane and the birds wing. Its a quilt of textures, too, which is wonderful for kids. Your hand quilting really made the difference, too!

    You should send the quilt now so he can truly enjoy it!

    Hi Karen, it would cost an arm and a leg to ship it abroad and there is the possibility of it going missing. It will need to be shipped to Asia. So my sister has forbidden me to ship it and has said that they will be coming to visit and will take it with them as hand luggage. Yes, he will be six or maybe just before when they next come. It is as big as a double bed so should still fit him. :lol: My sister measured him up and told me he was 1.6M tall which is equivalent to about 6 foot and I thought something was wrong there, but my sister assured me she was right! I would have made to last a few years anyway.

    Glad you like it. I did toy with the idea of sending it but my sister is petrified of not receiving it. She sent me something a year or so ago and I never received it. On top of that, it is very costly to ship.
