    No I think it is a great idea. I am still in the midst of making quilts for my children but I have already thought about making extra baby quilts fr when I can't make any for grand children.

    I think it's a great idea to start the quilts now.

    You made an excellent point .. what can we do in 15/ 20 years.
    Stock pile is always good.
    Don't forgot to add college quilts to that

    Very nice quilt

    What a smart idea. I love making quilts and my husband always says "so what are you going to do with this one?" sort of takes the fun out of it. Make aheads are a wonderful idea, nothing OCD about that. That is just smart.

    Love your quilt, great planning ahead. I need to learn from you. My daughter is 16 in a couple weeks and I have had the fabric for 6 months and I just got it pieced in the last couple days, now to finish the rest in time for her big day.

    I know how you feel, I am also starting to work on Wedding quilts for my grandchildren.. Oldest to youngest grandchildren is 21,19,16,16,15,13,6,1 & expecting #9 in Oct. I started by making baby quilts, then twin size quilts, then queen size and now plan on making king size for wedding gifts. Also I am planning on making 4 king size quilts for my 4 children. I think I started at the wrong end of the list...LOL Plus I love making smaller items such as table runners, christmas gifts and etc.
    So keep on sewing Alice/and I would love see all your quilts as you make them.
