I finally finished the crazy patch jacket I had intended to give to DGD for Christmas -- only 2+ months late -- but she loved it.

That came out really nice, and you DGD is a doll ;-)

What an adorable little angel...and the jacket is perfect for her! Great job!

nice jacket, darling dgd, good job, better late than never :)

Beautiful granddaughter and beautiful jacket! Like your quilt ladder too.

Lovely jacket for a lovely little girl. She will remember her "Coat of Many Colors".

McQuilter, that's exactly what we called it -- her coat of many colors. Gave us a good opportunity to talk about the story of Joseph.

Y'all are all so kind -- I'm kinda prejudiced, but I think she's a cutie also.

Both are beauties :thumbup:

I'm sure DGD thought her jacket was well worth the wait!

Looking good!

Love it. She models it well too. I also love your walls, your fireplace and your quilt rack!

That's just what I thought of as well... I need to make one of these for my GD. Did you have a pattern?

By the way, your little model is just adorable!

I want one, I want one!!!!! Lucky GD--she clearly loves her jacket! Great job!

Cute, cute, cute! Nice work....

What a pretty little girl! I'd love to have a granddaughter, they are so much fun to sew for.

ditto! She's adorable modeling that adorable "coat of many colors." You did great! Love the stone fireplace! Reminds me of my parents' cabin they collected all the rocks for theirs and had it built. Sadly they built too close to the river and it got carried downstream -- all but the chimney and fireplace :-( but it brings back fond memories~! Can't get over how cute that crazy patch jacket is!! :-D :-D

Thanks for the compliments.

lots2do, my house was built in 1978, and that room is so very special. My father-in-law designed the paneling, the stone on the fireplace was all picked up by hand from land in North Carolina, except for the center stone which we got from a friend's farm nearby in Georgia. We remodeled the house a few years ago but kept this room exactly the same. I love the wood.

My darling hubby built the quilt ladder for me.

What a cutie! Both the jacket and the model are cute as the dickens.

That is such a cute jacket. Your grand daughter is so cute.

Cute jacket!! Looks great on your beautiful girl!!

Beautful jacket and darling DGD. You did a great job on the jacket. Love it. Thank You for sharing.

love both the grand daughter and her jacket, it was worth finishing it even late.

Wow that's cute! I bet she will have envious friends now. :thumbup:

that is really cute and so is your granddaughter. thank you for sharing. Penny

I think that is beautiful and the one wearing is is precious. I made a braided jacket of may colors for myself several years ago and still get complements on it. Love it nice and warm

Beautiful and bet she will love wearing it.

Brenda---I LOVE the jacket. Your granddaughter is precious. How old is she?

AND I love this room in your house-and the neat stories that make it so special. The quilt ladder is fabulous. I want to just sit in the rocker by the fire and quilt!!!!!!

DGD is 8.......going on 16 (LOL). As for the fireplace -- it's no longer a working fireplace. When we remodeled the house, we sealed it, added some height to the house and built a screen porch around where the chimney was located. So the beautiful rock chimney is now the focal point of my porch; and the original old log mantel is on the outside. The story on the log mantel is that it was from a log cabin that dated back to the Civil War. You'll just have to come my way and see it sometime!

I'd like to actually make some type of "wooden quilt" to put on the porch.

She's got that perfect 'over the shoulder' model pose! What a sweetheart.

Great jacket too. It's only 2 1/2 months late? Wow, I've got some quilts that are late by a couple of years.

warm quilt hugs, sue in CA

That is awesome. I love all the bright colors. Perfect for a little girl. Perfect for a big girl too. I want one. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Just love your jacket of many colors, bet your DGD loves it, too!!! :D

Loving it!!!!! GD is just gorgeous too :D :D

How cute!

Oh! I want one! That is wonderful!

Darling young lady and really cute jacket.

That came out reallygreat. Your DGD is so cute.

Your grandaughter is too cute, and I love the jacket!

Thanks for sharing such beautiful photographs and the stories behind your lovely home. Your grand daughter is a real sweetie and the jacket is fabulous (is 46 too old to wear one????).

What a sweet model She looks great in her beautiful jacket.

No, 46 is not too old! I made the original one for me -- and I'm 64! Remember, we're only as old as we feel. Problem is, some days I feel 90! (LOL)
