I cried when I read your story. Then seeing the quilt I cried again. Looking at the beautiful work that you did you can see the love that went into it. The first quilt I did that was requested I too was nervous and thought it wasn't good enough. But the reaction from the receiver said differently. We may know where the mistakes lie, they are exactlly where the love flowed in. Great job !!

This is an absolutely beautiful quilt! I am going to save this ,as it is the best use of baby clothing on a quilt I have ever seen. I love the way you thought it out and put it all together and I love the binding to. I love using there clothes in blankets. You did a beautiful job.

What a wonderful idea. I see so many little garments that have stains on them at garage sales and I would not use them for a new baby, but I would buy them cheap and use the little logos and so on in a quilt. Thanks for the good idea.

Love your quilt as I know the family did. I will also be saving this idea to use in the future. I think it would be perfect for little boys and I saw a quilt the other day that used little dress that I thought would be great for my granddaughter now I know how to make it even more special, use her outgrown clothes.
