I have 6 from my daughters - 4 grandaughters, 2 grandsons. Plus, my stepkids from my husband who passed away in 1996 have kids, so my others are 14 total, but I don't see many of them at all. Families...you know.

Just wondered how many Grandparents are out there. Aren't Grandkids the greatest!

Oh, forgot to mention I have ten!

I have 3 grand-daughters so far---

I have 6! 4 boys (12, 4, 3, 2 weeks) and 2 girls (7 and 2). Most received quilts between ages 0-2. The exceptions are the two oldest because I hadn't started quilting when they were babies. They are in the plans to be made within the next year or so though. :D

I have two wonderful grandchildren, 12 and 6. I quilted when I was young when I had the time. I have a little more time now and I think I am a wee bit better at it too. :)

2 granddaughters, ages 2 and 5. Yes, they have both received quilts. I hand embroidered an alphabet quilt for the younger one. The older one has received a butterfly wall hanging.
