    Thanks everyone, ..My friend picked up the quilts today and she loved all of them, but she liked the one with the dresses the best and that is the one she said she would keep for herself.. I'm just so happy she liked them all..

    Love2Craft, the pattern for the paper pieced pattern was from ChariseCreates, you can look up on the internet for them..

    Thanks everyone for all the wonderful complements, it really makes me happy..

    All beautiful quilts. The dresses are so cute, but I really like the 1st one. Can you share what pattern you used?

    I love these! I have shirts from my dad that I want to make some lap quilts from. I didn't even think about doing different patterns. Great idea!
