Now I'm going to have it stuck in my head all day, lol! |

But I do have a sweet little crib quilt that I made for Ryan when he was born 26 years ago. It is hand-embroidered alphabet squares. I'll look and see if it is in his closet and take a pic of it... when I get out of bed. The laptop and I are snuggled away for the day. My first illness since retiring... sore throat and cough. I made it when I was pregnant so hence the pink and eyelet. "Tuttle" was one of his first words! [ATTACH=CONFIG]3757[/ATTACH] Piggy disappeared! [ATTACH=CONFIG]3759[/ATTACH] Here it is! A much loved quilt! He has left it in his closet because he's afraid he'll lose it if it leaves this house! [ATTACH=CONFIG]3849[/ATTACH] |
Love the baby quilt. I love doing embroidery and it looks terrific on this quilt.

Here's mine. It was made in a class at a sewing store. I am guessing about 1979. It was a quilt as you go. This quilt is still used everyday. It's very soft and wearing out. DH loves it

This was my first full sized quilt. I think I have the close up of the squares on CD somewhere. And yes, that's William Shatner. :)
I had a bunch of fans from all over the world send me decorated quilt squares and then I sewed them together for him. I also made a small one for his daughter Lizabeth. [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...paintball2.jpg[/IMG] |

Here's mine......I wanted to do something different from the usual cross stitch samplers that I do when a friend has a baby. Here's the result!

PrettyKitty, I love that little baby quilt. It is lovely and very different!
