30 some years ago I made baby quilts for many of my nieces & nephews. Several of the kids still have their quilts and love them very much. I have had to repair them several times. One of my nieces was afraid to show me her quilt because it was so well-worn. When she finally gave it to me to repair, it was so thread bare it looked like just warps on a loom. The original quilts were tied & appliqued with bunny appliques hence they are now called 'bunny quilts'. They request those quilts for all of their children and even their husbands. I have made pieced quilts but quit giving them to the kids because they didn't use them - they 'saved' them for good. The bunny quilts are well used every day.
