Now, please don't call the quilt police on my 6 year old DD but she's calling this her Tied Fleece Quilt since it has the appearance of having quilt blocks. She saw a picture of a fleece "quilt" in a catalog and decided last year that we could do that ourselves. She did all the cutting for the squares and the fringe and then put them into rows in the pattern she liked. She only needed a very little bit of help with the longer rows but everything else was entirely her own work.

I LIKE IT! Very bright and lovely...
She did a wonderful job..

She did a really nice job- that was a lot of tying!

She did a wonderful job!

Great job! She should be proud!

So pretty. Tell her she did a super job.

I have a feeling that won't be her last quilt. She is one of our future quilters.

It's a keeper!

Tell her it's FABULOUS!!!! GREAT JOB!!! :thumbup: :-D

My 2 yr old GD loves it. So she must have done a great job. :D

She did a great job! Here's to a future quilter!!

Very nice and cozy. Great colors and good work! :thumbup:

That is one smart 6 year old. Bet she does well with math in school - and everything else, too.

Nice bright colors, very well done !

And creative as all get out, too! So, so cute!

Tell her we all are so proud of her !!!! She did a GREAT job :thumbup:

She did a great job.

:lol: Actually, math is her strongest point in school. She's very academic and going by state regulations in homeschool, she skipped Kindergarten all together and started first grade last year. She's 6 and halfway through second grade now. She's not too fond of art class, ironically, but I think it's because some of it is called "free art" and that total lack of control/instruction drives her insane! She needs patterns, instructions and formulas. :lol: My oldest DD is the opposite and loves free expression. She saw a picture of a quilt in a Joann's flyer and decided she would start it. She's 8. Next week we're going to block off time to start it, without a pattern. :? I googled it and found it was a Chinese Coin Quilt but she prefers to eyeball it. :lol:

Thanks for all of the encouragements. She's gushing over all the praise. She has the flu right now so this is perfect timing to finish it so she can cuddle with her new lap "quilt".

Well give that girl a big hand! She did a wonderful job! And beautiful blanket too!

Congratulations on your 'new' quilter!! :) She did a fantastic job

Ditto!!

Here is the young quilter herself, enjoying her creation!

She did a wonderful job.

Good for her!!! You go, girl!

No POlice here! I think it is wonderful!

Great job. A very good project for someone starting out and wants fast results.

Cute :P

she can call it anything she wants! for a kid that age to see a project thru to the end is wonderful :thumbup:
it's VERY pretty

It is a very nice quilt and especially since it's her own design.

I love it!!! Did you cut it all or is it from one of the kits that I saw at either Michaels or JoAnn around Christmas? Either way, she did a great job!

YEA! wonderful job. Am sure u r very proud!

PRICELESS!!! You must be so proud!

FANTASTIC! I am so impressed!

No, we didn't want to get the kits. She didn't like orange at the time (she was 5 when we started this) so we went to Joann's and bought the colors she likes. I cut them into strips with the rotary cutter and with a ruler, pencil and scissors, she cut the strips into squares and then cut the fringe. With the tiny squares left over from cutting the corners of the fringe, we made a pillow case.

how wonderful!!!!!!!!! congratulations on a job well done.

She should be proud! very nicely done!

She did a fantastic job!

Super job! Nice bright colors. Looks like you have a future quilter in the family.

Great job!!! Don't you just love their "sitck-to-it-iveness"?!?!

Very pretty. She has already started putting colors in a pleasing arrangement. She's on her way to some wonderful quilt design.
