    Default I have to say I really like it!

    Everyone I've told this story to said they probably wouldn't have done it, but I am glad I did. Have you ever gone to Joann's or some other store and just clicked with the sales person? Well I met this young woman probably a year ago and everytime I would see her it was like we were friends. One day in talking she told me she was expecting and for some reason I knew I wanted to make her baby a quilt. I told the other girls I didn't want to know the sex of the baby because for some reason I just knew it was going to be a girl, so I made this little girl quilt and then I saw her and she slipped and told me it was a boy! So this is what I ended up making for this little guy, I just have to add a label. I'm making another just like it for my new grandson.

    This is awesome quilt, and yes I know what you mean about "clicking" irregardless of age.
    I'm sure she will be thrilled with your gift.

    I love the quilting in conjunction with the tumblers. What a nice job well done.

    Good job. Great when we can just "click" with someone like that!
