i started by making the pinwheel block in the center, but Trinity (my 8 yr old DD) decided she just wanted squares like the 1 she designed for her kitty... so she picked out fabrics and decided where each square would go.. she rearranged them so many times over the last couple weeks lol.. she made sure that i didnt sew 2 of the same squares together anywhere :D
the center block equaled the same as 4x4 squares... so i decided 14 squares across and 20 down instead of the 15x21 i had planned so that it could be in the direct center :D

It is 60x80 now without any borders, although i would like to add 1 or 2 to it. but it is the first top ive made that is actually big enough for a bed (not counting baby and play quilts)

Im so happy.
Trinity is so excited and proud :D
I will add borders this week, then it will be getting sent off to be quilted as soon as the backing i ordered for it gets here :D

Now she wants to use the leftover squares to make curtains
:shock:

That is so pretty :D:D:D

Perfect for a young lady! Good going Trinity. I like it!

Cute!

Very pretty. You will have to show us the picture of her room when everything is put together.

You both did a wonderful job!

Very nice! Great job to both of you.

That is a totally awesome quilt! Love it!

Beautiful. thanks for sharing

Wow! Both you and trinity did a wonderful job. She should be very proud.

Pretty, pretty, pretty!

Beautiful quilt and it will be a lovely memory for both of you about the time shared to create this work of love.

Very pretty! It is nice to see an 8 yr old show interest. You both did a great job! I love the mother/daughter bonding

Very pretty. Good colors.

lovely!

You and Trinity should pat yourselves on the back! It is hard to decide where to put what block if you have a lot of them...she did a good job. Oh, you did too, by the way.

great job trinity. Did mom let you do any sewing? love the colors girly pink.

Very pretty! I have a daughter named Trinity as well! Mine is Trinity Joy, she's my sweet little 5 year old.

What a wonderful quilt.

very pretty!

Very pretty!

Lovely quilt for a little girl, you and Trinity did a gret job.

Very pretty quilt! Glad that your DD shows an interest in your quilting art!!! She has a good eye for placement!

That is so pretty. She designed her first quilt. :-D :-D

She designed this 1 for her kitty first :D and even did some of the quilting on it herself :D i gave her a charm pack and told her to arrange them in 6 rows of 7. She loved it
i still have to finish the binding on 1 side, but this was the 1 that made her decide she wanted a similar 1 for herself

the more i look at the top of her quilt, i wonder if its supposed to be so long lol... i guess im just used to making smaller square 1s... just seems odd that its so long.

How sweet is that they have matching quilts :lol: She has a great eye for color and is developing good habits of arranging fabrics :thumbup: Keep up the good work

Very pretty, perfect for a little girl!

That is lovely Tanya, Trinity has a great eye for color. Obviously inherited!

Very nice. How wonderful to have young help!

great job Trinity

Trinity did a great job with the placement of the blocks. A budding quilt designer.

Very pretty!!

That quilt rocks for a young girl.

Great job!!

Love those colors

How fun. It's a pretty quilt too.

Wow! very nice

I am glad she participated in the process. Perhaps she is a budding quilter! Watch out, you may have competition for your stash....or she might want a stash of her own!

:thumbup:

I love it. Great colors
