    That is so beautiful....both the quilt and your darling DD. My favorite christmas ornament is a little snowman needlepoint that my DD did 32 years ago. I drew the snowman, showed her how to needlepoint, and left it to her. She was 4 yr. old at the time, and today, that ornament is on my Christmas tree, dead center so I can see it every time I walk by the tree. These things are so special. You will remember this time with her forever.

    I love DD's design--the border at the top!
    She's quite creative....of course you were assisting.
    I did something w/my great-granddaughter who is 5. She drew pictures and I copied them on the computer. I did the stitching (big) but she told me where to place the needle. Nice to have the next generation to teach fun stuff.

    oh yes, she had a lot of help from me, but I'd say she did about 1/3 of the piecing and about 1/2 of the quilting (some of that was completely on her own, some with me guiding her hands and/or using the foot pedal).

    That top border was a last minute addition - the tinkerbell backing is an old flat sheet from one of her sets, once we got the squares pieced, we decided it just wasn't long enough and we were out of fabric, so we cut the top border from the sheet an attached it :) it turned out pretty good!

    What puckers? What wavy lines? What crooked seams? My eyes must not be working as all I see is love love love. She is one lucky (and quite beautiful) granddaughter and YOU my dear are a loving grandmother.
