    Default Quilt for Great Grandson

    It's like a baby book in a quilt. Just put firsts and memories into each white block.

    What a neat idea! My DDIL made one with clear pockets on the sides for photos of firsts. This is a cute Idea too. Going to have to remember this one.

    This is a great quilt; I love it and I'm sure your grandson will, too. I like the idea of putting memories in the white fabric as well. Good thinking!

    Cute quilt. Great idea. Got me thinking. Could you applique some photos in the white areas later on. I have never used the photo fabric. Would it be too stiff to applique and would it make the quilt too stiff?
