A lady recently posted her son under his quilt she made.. it is a picture of him wrapped in love. It warms your heart to see someone so happy with a quilt we have spend time working on specifically for them. We post our quilt pictures here but not often those under them receiving the warmth and love we are giving. I am proposing we do that today.. in honor of National Quilt Day . Here are some of my people under their gift of love.

What a great idea ! I have not made many quilts but I think taking a picture of the quilt with the person you give it too is such a good idea.

My grandson wanted a quilt for Christmas this past year, but did not tell me in time to really do anything of that size, so I made him a blanket made from an Air Force panel of fleece. I also made him a bunch of pillows. My daughter has since repainted his whole room to match the blanket ! And completely redecorated his room. Now at least I have a color idea for his quilt next year.

Sweet I love this !!

This is a wonderful idea. I had fun with this quilt, collecting the fun fabrics in bright colors. It is a Stack the Deck.

I'm lovin' that daddy wrapped in a pink quilt!!!

What a beautiful thread. I hope more people add their quilts being used.

Very neat thread.

Very sweet picture and gorgeous quilt

I like how you did the binding too !

Here are two quilts I made for a friends grandchildren. These are two of the first quilts I made so they are not the best but the kids love them and that is what quilting is all about.

Bless you.

They are awesome !!!

What a great idea for a thread!!! Thanks for starting it....here are pictures of my great-niece and great-nephew with the two first quilts I have made....they were my inspiration for learning to quilt

My hubby and Boo. She is quite smaller just the angle makes her look bigger. It is a quilt I made for hubby.

Second one is Boo, on quilt I made for DD.

All these pictures just show that the purpose of a quilt if love and warm hugs.

She looks very sweet! "Hi Gramma!!"

My dogs love quilts They sleep under a quilt every night. Of course its the same one over me. :XD:

Now is that sweet, or what!! I just adore dogs!!

Great thread...what a loving bunch quilters are.

SO cute... I have had dobeys they love quilts ;)> and pillows LOL>

adorable.. everyone you have made me smile with each and every one of these pictures !! thank you for participating in this !!

Well maybe your kitty would share his quilt with a Dobie?

cute Kim

Janice all are very nice... question is the cats blankie a pannel or and applique?
So cute
Connie

NOt likely.. when we had the dobie.. she was 1.5 year old and untrained ...terrible manners.. jumping on everyone etc... she chased kitty up a tree. ...........and kitty was gone for 34 days.. she came back late one night to the front door and was a bone rack .... and angry at us. Kitty has been an indoor cat even since. This dobey left...when she attacked my lab.. lab does not like another dog near by and a rabbit was the cause in that one. MY lab likes to protect all animals near by willow wanted to eat it and tried like crazy to get in the cage ..blood everywhere ;(.; Dobey went back to previous owner a well trained dog after being here 6 months and owners are happy with her now ..........so all worked out in the end. All three are happy.. I miss her dobeys are great dogs ! We had another about 22 years ago.. love them

I take pictures of all my quilts right after I finish washing and drying them. I give most to people I don't know or ship them off.

All the pictures are very pretty.

I understand I was at my machine quilters home yesterday and she has a ton of gorgeous quilts on a rack on her bed in the hallway etc. and I have about 5 here. laps total.. I have given almost everything away hundreds of quilts. I think I would like to make a big one for me this year .

I say as I just get an order for 4 more baby quilts for someone else ;)LOL.. my friend send me fabric left from her mom when she died. and I am making one for the new grandbaby next month Fun to have a quilt made from her great grammas fabric ;)

Am loving these pictures. I will have one to post in a few weeks once I give my friend her quilt for her birthday.

The pictures and quilts are wonderful. Must start taking pictures this way. So far only two that I have taken.

You really hit on something here. Every single one of these quilts looks absolutely smashing when wrapped around a person, covering them or being sat on or slept on.

And that includes some quilts that I might have found just ordinary otherwise. The binding and the quilting are not what make it finished. It's like the person (or pet) is what completes the quilt.
