    Great idea to use two different designs for the same fabric. Those will be well loved, for sure.
    I agree with a couple of the others....share info on the NY beauty under the kids quilts.

    I have wondered about the minkey. Does it sit still when quilting or did you experience shifting? I love the feel of this fabric and the colors are so delicious.

    Both are really nice! Love the difference the pattern made using the same fabric.

    I have used minky many times for kids quilts and chemo quilts and never had a problem at all. I lay the minky out on my table and tape it down with duct tape to keep it from shifting while making the sandwich, then smooth out the batting if desired and smooth the top onto that. I have always used saftey pins, but think that I'm going to try basting next time so I don't have to be so constantly aware of removing pins as I go. Be sure to clean your machine afterwards...it can get fuzzed up. Thanks for looking.

    Super cute quilts & what a great idea for twins. I too, have to mention that gorgeous quilt on your bed. It is spectacular.

    Really cute quilts, and I agree with QuiltNan that the quilt covering the bed is stunning.
