    Default Gift for 8 yr. old granddaughter

    I made this throw several years ago from cut off HSTs from flying geese from another quilt. It is backed in Minky.
    Because her brother is getting a queen sized quilt, shams and pillowcases, I felt I had to "up the game for her" and decided to make American Girl doll clothes. Our granddaughter is in Cub Scouts and LOVES camping,so I did a theme and also made a 30" x 30" tent with zippered screen door and window. I'm still waiting on the delivery of the poles but can post a pic later if anyone is interested. Thanks for looking.

    I would love to see the tent to go with this beautiful ensemble. I love the cot and wondered did you make your own frame or purchased it? I love all your pieces and so would at least 2 of my great grandkids would love these. I would like to be a fly on the wall when your granddaughter opens all this! Merry Christmas!

    The scout uniform and the camping gear are adorable! What a lucky granddaughter to have a grandma like you.
