    Default quilt for Grandson

    One of my twin Grandsons asked me for a quilt. So here it is. Just finished it during the night. I got the pattern from a Missouri Star video. [ATTACH=CONFIG]534314[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]534315[/ATTACH]

    Hope you like it. Kinda hard to tell from the pics...but each block has a shadow. (and a puppy...lol) Now I have to come up with another one for the other twin. Every other block is jeans material.

    He is 5'10" right now...so he asked me to make it a foot longer so his feet don't hang out the bottom. SO I just kept adding blocks. til I got it long enough . He knows about it. I asked him the other day if he wanted it now..or for Christmas. He said he would wait..that way he knows he will get something for Christmas. What a great kid. He is now 19....and one minute older than his brother. Loves of my life.
    Just have a question...if you had made this for him, would your signature say from "Grammy" or your actual name?

    If he still calls you "Grammy" then that's what I put on the quilt. It's great!

    I would say Grammy, then put your real name, just so future quilters would know who you are.

    Cute quilt.
