This is my first baby quilt "top" from a kit sent to me by "Quilts For Kids." What a great idea. Anyway, this is hopefully the first of many I want to make including the ones for the children in our local hospital. At first, I thought not to show it after seeing some real masters at work, but we've all got to start somewhere. I'm still pondering the quilting process and may call in some reinforcement to guide me.

"quiltsforkids.org" seems to be a great organization. Here's the link:

I'm learning and having FUN!

That is wonderful. I just finished 2 kits for them. Want to make a couple from my stash to send with them. Then I hope to find a group that does for the kids here locally.

Welcome to the board GrandPa. Very nice job you did on that quilt; I'm glad you decided to "show and tell"!
