My oldest grandson opened his quilt and said, "Oh wow, my own quilt!" Then he proceeded to dance around the room wrapped in it. The other two were excited too and really liked their quilts. Didn't know it would make such an impact!

I was fairly new to quilting when I made my son his quilt, I think he was somewhere between 10 & 12. When he left home, the quilt came with him, when he came back come the quilt came with him, in other words wherever he went, the quilt went. This year I made our DGD a quilt for her new "big girl" bed, I put 2 months of quilting into 2 weeks, but it was done on Christmas Eve and my son threw it in the washer and dryer for me. We told Zoe to close her eyes, my son put the quilt over her on the couch, then she jumped down from the couch and gave me an enthusiastic hug and kiss. My DS said he thought it was my best quilt ever.
