she turns 13 next week and this is probably the last time I will be able to get away with anything like this...but when my kids were little we watched a movie called "Totoro" about a billion times! When Maggie was about 3 she had Mae ponies (pig tails) just like the little girl in the movie ~ so in honor of her being 13 I made her a remember me quilt of her favorite movie. The black circles will be fringed when I'm done to turn into "dust bunnies" or soot sprites as they were in the movie....I hope she likes it. I hand drew everything....I don't think I've ever been so nervous about a quilt before. =)

This was a great idea and a lot of work, she will love it.

Awwww, that's precious! I bet you will love it forever :)

cute

ahhhhhh,"sew" cute !!

Cute! I just love that movie Totoro!

She will cherish this my 13 yo is very sentimental! Very lovely

Awww she will treasure this quilt along with the childhood memory forever :D:D:D

Is good to let your imagination run with you.

I'm always amazed by how attached my grown daughter still are to the books and movies we saw when they were little. This will be a wonderful remembrance for her. It's very special!
