I need to see how many hubby can take back and show his mom the end of July when he goes to visit.

<---my biggest supporter! Thank you my friend.
What a fantastic gift! I don't know if you make quilt labels, but be sure to take the time to make them for these special quilts. It can be as simple as the 8 pointed star with a muslin or white piece for the center square so that you can write the name of the child/gchild, date and "From Mom's(Gma's) Scrap Bag.

Here's a link to help you get started.

Here's the label on the first grandma. All grandmas fabric was stored in her huge fabric closet. All the grand kids knew they were NOT allowed in there! Now they'll have a real Grandma treasure. (I hope lol)

Wonderful SheriR! Guess you know how special these quilts will be!!

Nice touch SheriR
Bojangles, sorry for loss and nice finish. Always touches my heart to see a quilt used as such.

This weekend, I finished up five quilts. Yep, four baby quilts and one churn dash shirt quilt. I don't have photos yet, but I was so excited to get five finishes I just could not help but say something.

SheriR -- holes in the middle? How interesting. Yep, you are doing a service for the whole family, so no worries about cutting into the fabric. Save some special pieces for a quilt for yourself...maybe pieces that you like and especially remind you of how special Grandma is.

QuilterMomma: Wow your on a roll. Congrats on the finishes, can't wait to see pictures.

Nancy, I sure am sorry to hear about you FIL. What a lovely way to share his quilt with him. Kudos to your hubby for thinking of that.

Here are the photos!!! Not sure if I showed the 70s quilt that I finally finished.

SheriR 06-12-2013 08:37 AM
QM love LOVE them!! Why is the one your "70's" did you start it in the '70's or '70's fabric. Either way I really like it.
